Our Complete Care
Philosophy.
Rates
Unfortunately, disease states
usually provide us with little notice of their intention
to "move in". Our Geriatricians have found that the only
way to truly promote health is to evaluate and monitor
the entire health and lifestyle of our patients. While
our main focus may be to maintain a lower blood
pressure, we will always be on the look out for the
beginnings of other issues.
Our home care patients can
expect a comprehensive initial evaluation. We will use
this information to determine the level of care needed
and to work in conjunction with our patients and their
families to design a unique plan of care.

-
Cognitive and Behavioral Assessments

Initial and On-Going Memory Loss and Function
