Our
commitment at St. Barnabas Nursing Home extends well beyond
care giving. Attending to resident’s emotional needs, we
provide a nurturing environment based on a strong sense of
community. Through participation in a community of self-help
and peer support, residents at St. Barnabas develop the
essential sense of belonging that fosters security and
enhances quality of life.
We
provide a creative program of daily therapeutic recreational
activities that promote active socialization. In addition, our
recreation staff arranges a full schedule of special events
and holiday celebrations, all of which provide a lively
sharing of festivities. From the popular annual Memorial Day
barbecue to scheduled outings, residents participate in and
enjoy a stimulating variety of fun-filled, memorable events
year-round.
Excellent Continuity of Care
Through
a multiplicity of services coordinated to meet the special
needs of each resident, we assure uncompromising continuity of
care. Social, medical, nutritional and rehabilitative
requirements are assessed and monitored by highly trained
professionals. At the outset, each resident is assigned an
Attending Physician, who recommends a plan of medical
treatment, supervises diagnostic and therapeutic procedures
and prescribes medications.
Our team
approach assures that administrators, physicians, nurse
managers, social workers, case managers, dietitians,
recreation and rehabilitation therapists, and special
consultants are working together to provide the highest level
of interdisciplinary care for every member of our Nursing Home
family. We also encourage resident’s own family members to
participate in the plan of care. |
