Caring vs. Providing Care
Our Assisted Living Service Program is focused on nurturing residents to help them reach their maximum potential. Our staff seeks to foster independence rather than dependence, and to be sensitive to the individuality, privacy and freedom of choice to which our residents are entitled. In short, care is something we do, not simply a service we provide.
Personal Care Services
Our program generates an individually tailored service plan that supports the resident's own ability to perform activities of daily living. Services we can assist with may include:
Responding to Change
We meet the changing needs of our residents by offering a fee structure that addresses the degree of need and frequency of interaction. The resident's monthly fee may increase or decrease as their needs change. Our trained staff documents services provided, and notes trends that may demonstrate a higher level of need.
Team Work
It's a team effort that works best. In order to meet our residents' needs, we are in frequent contact with families as well as physicians, counselors or therapists to discuss any challenges we may encounter.
If your needs should change, we will gladly assist you by providing an individualized care plan to suit your needs. Our communities offer private apartments with generous living space, with a choice of floor plans to fit your lifestyle. We also welcome all the personal touches that make a house a home, including your small pet.
