Pearls of Life

... Discovering the Treasures Within

Our Pearls of Life program recognizes the value of each individual and assists them in Discovering the Treasures Within. This is accomplished by focusing on each individual's strengths and by promoting opportunities for new successes each day. The staff has been trained in the various facets of this program so that each individual may receive more consistent quality care.

How do we accomplish this?

We provide an environment that is small enough for the individual to feel comfortable and secure. An atmosphere is created that provides structure and routine, while allowing flexibility to meet individual needs. On-going support is given to our families which assists them at all stages of the transition process and through the progression of the disease. Examples of support provided are the Caregiver Support Groups, Care Conferences, Guest Speakers, individualized problem solving.

Health

We work with the family, or responsible party, to develop a detailed Service Plan that identifies the resident's care needs. As the individual's needs change, the Service Plan is adapted to reflect their current needs. Care is more consistently provided due to the use of our service software technology that provides daily service schedules to our caregivers. Care is tracked and verified through a daily documentation tool. Caregivers working in Memory Care have been provided with a nationally recognized Alzheimer's/Dementia training course developed by Senior Living University. On-going dementia training is also provided.

Enrichment

We respect each individual's interests, needs, and abilities, adapting activities so that the individual can experience success. We actively pursue their participation and encourage all levels of involvement. We appreciate the importance of developing relationships and the need for social interaction. We provide a variety of activities recognizing that new interests can still be developed, enjoyed, and appreciated.
