(Q)
What type of “outings” do you offer your residents?
(A) Aside from regularly scheduled trips
to the malls, bowling alleys, or just to go out for tea,
occasionally arranged excursions to the museum or other
municipal attractions and special events (parades, fairs,
concerts) are featured. The recreational coordinators for
each facility talk to the residents about their interests
and organize activities around their response. The result
could be a simple ride into the country or a picnic in a
park.
(Q) What qualifications does your
staff have?
(A) All AgeCare senior care communities
meet or exceed the industry regulated requirements. Each
facility has a Registered Nurse, and we maintain access
to a host of health specialists and therapists. Our resident
aides have all completed a course in residential care through
a recognized college as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
or Personal Care Attendant (PCA).
(Q) Are pets allowed?
(A) Pets are allowed subject to approval.
Residents with pets are required to sign a “pet care
contract” undertaking to provide all the care and
responsibility for their pet. We always encourage families
and friends with pets to bring them for visits, but we maintain
pet-free zones also.
(Q) How do you welcome and orientate
new residents?
(A) AgeCare senior care communities operate
on the principle of providing our seniors with quality personal
care in a “home-like” surrounding. Our best
references are our residents (see testimonials), and each
facility has a Resident Welcoming Committee to make our
new residents feel completely at home with their new friends.
Our friendly staff readily recognizes new residents and
they make a point of introducing themselves and their service
responsibilities. We all strive to make new residents feel
that they are truly welcomed to their new home!
