Our goal is to assist residents with their desire to delay nursing home admission as long as possible. To that end our nursing staff has developed additional care levels for residents whose medical condition requires more care than independent living but less care than our nursing home offers.

We offer these care levels:

Level one, the Extra Care Level, is begun when a resident requires routine standby assistance with various daily living activities, which may include use of toilet facilities, dressing and undressing, and general moving about.

Level two, the Extended Care Level, is initiated when a resident requires routine assistance from our staff beyond the standby level. This may include more in-depth assistance with dressing and undressing, use of toilet facilities, hygiene needs, transfers, and general moving about.

Level three, the Extensive Hospice Level, is started when a resident has an end stage disease. We coordinate a resident’s care with a certified hospice program of the resident’s choice and the resident’s physician. All three entities are involved in the care of the resident at this level.

Many residents require additional care levels for only a short period of time and are then able to resume their more independent lifestyles. Frequently residents receiving Extra and Extended Care Levels are also receiving occupational, physical, and speech therapy from our in-house therapy department.

Residents who eventually require skilled nursing home services receive priority admission status in our nursing home depending on bed availability.
