Deerwood Crossing Senior Residence Home
   
 
   

Assisted living.

 

Meeting increased needs. As a senior requires more assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADL), the Assisted Living option is available. It brings services into a resident’s apartment so that he or she doesn’t have to move to another location.

The Assisted Living program offers the option of purchasing a basic service package.

 

Basic plan.

 

The Basic Service Plan includes:

Housekeeping
Services include vacuuming, light dusting, removal of garbage and cleaning and disinfecting of the bathroom and kitchen.

Linen Service
Linens will be removed from the resident’s bed and bathroom each week, laundered and replaced by staff.

Medication Administration
Medications will be administered by staff daily. Medications are kept locked in a cabinet in the resident’s apartment in order to ensure security and privacy.

Meal Plan
The resident can choose up to two meals per day to be eaten in the dining room. Lunch and dinner are served 7 days a week in the dining room. Staff will bring a continental breakfast to a resident's apartment.

Personal Assistance Service
Residents are able to receive personal service above and beyond the other items mentioned in the plan. This may include assistance with ambulation within the building, assistance with performing ADL including dressing, bathing or grooming.

Health Wellness monitored by a Registered Nurse
A registered nurse is on staff to assist in managing and monitoring the health of each resident. The nurse’s involvement can include conversations with the resident’s physician to clarify orders, assisting the resident with acquiring the services of an outside healthcare provider, or monitoring the health of an individual in order to provide proactive, preventative healthcare services. The nurse is also available for blood pressure monitoring, weight monitoring and limited consultation for health issues.

24 Hour Staff
Staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to assist residents with their unscheduled needs. This provides an added sense of security and safety for residents that they cannot get in their own homes.

Emergency Call System
Residents are equipped with an emergency call pendant when they move in. In case of medical or house emergency, the resident is able to summon staff. Staff will then assist or contact the appropriate emergency response agency for the resident.

Diabetic Management
Designed for residents who require blood glucose monitoring, insulin injection administration and other services related to diabetes.

Injection Administration
B12 and Lovonox injections are an example of this service. This does not include insulin injections.

Meal Tray Delivery
Residents who have a short term illness can receive meal tray delivery in their apartment for a short period of time. This is not offered on a permanent basis.
