Social Model

   

Family Health West's social model of care includes a  Functional Maintenance Concept of Care.  We promote the conviction that Eldercare is much more than just custodial care.  We use a functional maintenance concept of care which means we are committed to keeping each of our residents functioning at their highest level possible.  Functional maintenance means providing care that assists the resident to reverse declines in the areas of daily self-care activities if possible, and to improve or maintain their very Highest Level of Functioning and Independence.

At Family Health West, functional declines are addressed through special Therapies and Restorative Nursing Programs that are designed to stem declines and promote Quality of Life.  Family Health West uses a Functional Maintenance Concept of Care throughout its Continuum of Care that combines therapies and nursing into tailored programs for the individual - challenging and motivating the patient to maintain and enhance cognitive and motor skills - thus promoting the Highest Levels of Self-Sufficiency, Self-Worth, Dignity and Self-Esteem, both Socially and Physically.  The results that have been achieved are in some cases dramatic, and enable many residents to remain in their present setting or progress from Extended Care / Nursing Home to our less restrictive Assisted Living arrangement - thus "aging them in place."  The Social Concept is based on the positives, focusing on wellness, enhancing the environment to assist each resident to maintain or improve if possible, and to prevent unnecessary declines.  Our programs are designed to individually enhance the "Quality of Life" of each resident.  Our Restorative Nursing and Functional Maintenance Programs have proven to be very successful.  Our caregivers understand that each of our residents / patients is unique.  We provide the personal attention necessary to assure each individual's well-being.
