Family Health West developed a
Guidebook
to assist other healthcare facilities Replicate our Social Model Concept. We want to share our expertise
with other facilities that provide Alzheimer's and Elder Care.
Family Health West has gained recognition and awards for our Social Model Concept for Alzheimer's and Elder
Care - "The Main
Street Experience." Our approach is
benefiting Alzheimer's residents nationwide by providing a replicable
social model of care that has made a wonderful difference in the lives
of many Alzheimer's and dementia residents and their families. We
have literally changed the Quality of Life of our elderly by
showing there's a different way to take care of the elderly.
Family Health West offers a unique Continuum of Care that
includes Acute Hospital Care; Medicare Skilled Nursing Services; and
Physical Rehabilitation Therapy Services to include Physical, Speech and
Occupational Therapies; Adult Extended Long-Term Care Nursing Home /
Alzheimer's Care; Assisted Living; and Secure Assisted Living. Our Continuum allows residents to stay in their
present setting as long as possible - providing continuity of care and a
higher Quality of Life. Our Continuum provides a Seamless
Transition for residents and families.
Family Health West is recognized as a Leader in Eldercare. The
key to our success and recognition is our Philosophy of Care and the creative, innovative,
State-of-the-Art Programs that have been designed and implemented. All of these programs for
resident care are delivered from a standpoint of human caring - with
Love, Compassion, and Concern for meeting the residents' individual
needs by using a Holistic Approach. These programs have
significantly improved our residents' Quality of Life.
By using the Social Model Approach, a simple hug or pat on the
hand; soaking the feet in warm water followed by a foot massage; a nice
walk; music, aroma or pet therapy; children's visits; entertainment or
one-to-one attention, we offer the Human Approach that residents
really need. This concept of care has proven to be an outstanding
success.
Family Health West's Social Model Concept of Care continues to
show visible and measurable improvements in
Alzheimer's and Elder Care. We use our
Social Model of Care Concept in our Adult Extended Long-Term Care Nursing Home; at The
Willows, our Secure Assisted Living residence specializing in Alzheimer's, Dementia and Confusion; as well as The Oaks,
our Assisted Living residence. Our model has been a
tremendous success and we would be delighted to share our concept.
