Personal Care
Early Autumns caregivers are available 24 hours a day, providing
assistance with personal care, to meet scheduled and unscheduled
needs. Our caregivers are sensitive to residents's needs and
sometimes their reluctance to accept such personal help. We
can encourage residents to feel more comfortable with accepting
the assistance needed, while remaining as independent as possible.
Home Cooking
Open the door and you are greeted with the aroma of home-made
bread on Sundays. We welcome residents' families or future
residents and their families to eat with us. Mealtime is a
social event at Early Autumns. The residents not only enjoy
the food, but often are entertained by folks who drop in to
tickle the ivories or sing.
Housekeeping and Laundry
Early Autumns staff will clean each resident's room and do
personal as well as flat laundry. Care is taken to do this
in a manner residents prefer.
Medication Administration
Medication regimens can be confusing. An error in this area
can impact dramatically upon a resident's health. The responsibility
of proper adminstration of medication is Early Autumns'. Residents
can relax and know they will be offered their medication on
schedule. Records are kept on each medication that is administered.
When a resident goes to the doctor this information will go
with them.
Are There Planned Activities?
Wellness is important. We emphasize activities to keep the
body and soul healthy. Weekly excursions are interesting,
but short in duration so that residents will feel comfortable
in participating. We visit businesses, shops, galleries, museums,
tourist sites, etc. We attend various presentations. Planned
events occur each day, and most of the time, twice a day.
Residents are encouraged to take part.
