Programs / Support Services
Rehabilitation
Services
The Villa celebrates its successes with the number of residents
who receive rehabilitation services and who are then able
to safely return home to the community. The rehabilitation
program consists of physical therapy, occupational therapy,
and speech therapy. The focus of the rehabilitation program
is to help each person achieve his or her maximum level of
independence in activities of daily living. The program provides
individualized therapy programs for each resident, with an
emphasis on meeting each resident's personal needs for strengthening,
balance, and coordination.
Skilled
Nursing Services
The
Villa provides skilled nursing care by a team of professional
nursing staff members for residents who require intensive
nursing services due to their medical complexity. Residents
are referred to this service (Baden Unit) from area hospitals
for nursing services as a follow up to their hospital stays.
The Villa provides skilled nursing services such as IVs, special
treatments and medications, and monitoring to best meet the
clinical needs of each resident. Many of these residents receive
rehabilitation services in addition to intensive nursing care.
Intermediate
Nursing Services
The
Villa offers long-term, intermediate nursing services for
persons who cannot safely return home, and whose personal
needs can only be met with the assistance of nursing staff
around the clock. Our caring staff provides assistance to
our residents in bathing, dressing and feeding, under the
supervision of licensed nursing professionals. A focus is
placed on meeting the needs of the whole individual by providing
a comprehensive activities program, as well as social, emotional
and spiritual support.
Alzheimers / Dementia
Care
The
Villa's Fontbonne Unit provides a safe and structured environment
for residents with Alzheimers and dementia. The unit is secure
so that residents can walk freely around the unit to various
activities areas, such as our Country Kitchens. The programs
are structured so that residents are encouraged to maintain
activity to meet their individual physical, spiritual, recreational,
social and emotional needs. Staff is trained in the philosophy
of this specialized care in order to best meet the "quality
of the moment" for each resident. The unit is based on
the Woodside Program model of dementia care.
Hospice
Care
The
Villa has by tradition focused on providing support and care
to the terminally ill. This support is provided by a variety
of professionals including nursing, social services, chaplain,
hospice and other staff. A ministry of caring for the physical,
emotional, and spiritual needs of each resident in a wholistic
manner is evident in these services to our residents and their
families.
