Physicians
Attending physicians are directly involved with the supervision of resident care. If the resident’s family physician has not applied for staff privileges, the resident is given the opportunity to choose a physician from the approved Villa list. In addition to attending physicians, the Villa arranges for consultation and treatment with a psychiatrist, psychologist, dentist, podiatrist, ophthalmologist or audiologist. Other services are obtained as needed. Back to Top

Nursing Staff A staff of well-trained registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nursing assistants provide care twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. The nurse manager of the floor directs and coordinates the care according to each resident’s needs and plan of care. Back to Top

Social Services
The Social Workers assist residents and their families in adapting to the Villa.

The Social Workers also facilitate details of a resident’s return home or transfer to another facility when such movements are appropriate. Back to Top

 

Dining Services
		Dining is essential in resident care. Serving appetizing meals encourages proper nutrition. A selective menu is offered for all diets. To provide a variety of foods, the menu cycle changes periodically. The registered dietitian visits residents periodically, attends weekly resident care conferences and adheres to doctors’ orders regarding diet. Residents are encouraged to eat together in one of the dining rooms. Back to Top
