We
recognize the variety of interests, abilities, and needs of the
elderly. We also believe in the social model for services and
programming which emphasizes involvement in activities of life at
whatever level is possible or desired.
All services will focus on
assistance. Our role is not to "do for," but to "assist with" each
resident's identified needs. By emphasizing assistance, we will support
independence and promote dignity for the residents at this facility.
Activity
and service intensity will be determined by the interest, abilities,
and functional limitations of the identified resident's needs.
