Restorative Care
Our specially trained nursing assistants offer restorative care daily or as recommended by licensed therapists. Restorative care can help an individual to regain skills that may have been weakened or lost due to illness or injury, such as range of motion, walking, standing, personal grooming, etc. Restorative care may also be offered when a resident is released from other forms of therapy. Services may include physical, speech or occupational therapy sessions. Designated and consistent staff members conduct the sessions and becomes familiar with the resident’s normal level of function, which results in better continuity of care, greater ability to identify problems, and prompt response to modify an existing treatment program to meet the resident’s needs.
