Overview: Types of Professionals on Staff and Their Training

Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs)

Roles: Provide direct medical care, administer medications, monitor vital signs, and manage overall patient health.

Training: Must have completed accredited nursing programs and hold state licensure. Ongoing training includes updates on medical practices, patient care techniques, and specialized certifications relevant to long-term and palliative care.

Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs)

Roles: Assist with daily living activities, including bathing, dressing, and feeding. They also help with basic medical tasks under the supervision of RNs or LPNs.

Training: Required to complete a state-approved CNA training program and pass a competency exam. They receive continuous training in patient care, infection control, and safety protocols.

Ongoing Training and Professional Development

All staff participate in regular training sessions, such as online courses. Training covers areas such as patient care standards, regulatory compliance, safety protocols, and emerging best practices.

Ensuring Safety and Well-Being of Residents

Comprehensive Health Assessments

Initial and Ongoing Evaluations: Residents undergo thorough health assessments upon admission and receive regular evaluations to monitor changes in their health status and needs.

24/7 Medical Supervision

Nursing Care: Our facility has trained nursing staff available around the clock to provide medical care, respond to emergencies, and ensure ongoing health monitoring.

Emergency Protocols: We have established protocols for managing medical emergencies, including access to emergency medical services and quick-response teams.

Infection Control Procedures

Hygiene and Sanitation: Strict hygiene protocols are in place, including regular cleaning and disinfecting of all areas. Staff follow handwashing and personal protective equipment (PPE) guidelines to prevent the spread of infections.

Vaccination Policies: Residents and staff are encouraged to stay up-to-date with vaccinations to minimize the risk of contagious diseases.

Customized Care Plans

Individualized Care: Each resident receives a personalized care plan developed by our multidisciplinary team, addressing their specific medical, physical, and emotional needs.

Regular Reviews: Care plans are reviewed and updated regularly to adapt to any changes in residents’ health or preferences.

Resident and Family Communication

Care Conferences: We hold regular care conferences to keep residents and their families informed about the care plan, progress, and any changes.

Open Communication Channels: Residents and families have access to a designated contact person for addressing concerns and providing feedback.

Emergency Preparedness

Disaster Plans: We have established emergency preparedness plans for situations such as natural disasters or other crises, including evacuation procedures and coordination with local emergency services.

Drills and Training: Regular drills and staff training ensure that everyone is prepared to act swiftly and effectively in emergencies.

Resources and Support Services for Transitioning into the Community

To ensure a smooth transition back to the community, our social workers assist residents and their loved ones from the moment they enter our facility until the final step of leaving. They help with finding appropriate placement, whether that means returning home or moving to another level of care. Throughout their stay, several meetings are held to keep everyone informed and aligned. Upon discharge, we provide options for home health care and offer outpatient therapy. If appropriate, we also connect residents with the ADRC (Aging and Disability Resource Center). Additionally, we coordinate with the pharmacy of their choice to ensure their medications are sent to the right place.

Transportation Services for Residents

We provide medically necessary transportation services.

Dining Experience

Upon admission, our Dietary Manager or Activities Director will meet with each resident to discuss their food preferences and dislikes. Weekly menus are tailored to each resident’s dietary needs. If a resident finds something on the menu unappealing, they can use a 'bistro ticket' to select an alternative meal. Options on the bistro ticket include soups, salads, hamburgers, meatballs, a variety of sandwiches, fruit, and more. Residents are encouraged to enjoy meals in the dining room and socialize with their peers. For those who prefer a quieter setting, each wing has a solarium where a smaller group of residents can dine. Residents also have the option to eat in their room if they prefer.

Complaints and Issues

When our staff receives any concerns, whether from family members or patients, they are documented on a ‘grievance form.’ This form is then reviewed and addressed by the appropriate parties and our Executive Director.

Communication with Residents’ Families

We begin with an initial care conference to get to know the patient and their family, helping to build a strong relationship from the start. We understand that transitioning into care can be challenging, so we aim to address all questions as soon as possible. Additionally, we hold quarterly care conferences (approximately every three months) to provide updates on the patient’s progress and address any concerns. For short-term patients, we also conduct a discharge care conference to ensure a smooth transition to home or another care setting. Our nursing staff is available 24/7 by phone, and our nurse managers provide updates to the family whenever there is a significant change or if they feel it’s necessary to communicate. Upon admission, patients and their families receive a contact list for the entire management team to address any concerns.
