Rockwell Community Nursing Home

Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and actions that can be measured.

Coordinate assessments with the pre-admission screening and resident review program; and referring for services as needed.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.

Ensure services provided by the nursing facility meet professional standards of quality.

Assist those residents who need help with eating/drinking, grooming and personal and oral hygiene.

Ensure that each resident who enters the nursing home without a catheter is not given a catheter, unless medically necessary, and that incontinent patients receive proper services to prevent urinary tract infections and restore normal bladder functions.

Have a program that investigates, controls and keeps infection from spreading.
