Good Shepherd Health Center is committed to providing quality care. To ensure that all residents are functioning at their highest levels, Good Shepherd Health Center initiates and utilities Quality Assurance programs to monitor and evaluate resident progress. A highly-trained and dedicated staff of nurses and certified nurse aides are available around the clock to meet resident needs such as medication, bathing, toileting, walking, etc.
Nursing services available are restorative and rehabilitative therapies, medication administration, health education, enteral feeding, specialized and secured care areas.
Good Shepherd's staff attend monthly in-services to stay up-to-date on care issues. There is always a house supervisor (registered nurse) in charge to contact the resident's own physician for any condition changes, such as with medications, or any other health related emergency. Good Shepherd Health Center only employs certified nurse assistants. These CNAs help residents with their essential functions of daily living.
Restorative services are offered to all residents at the Health Center. The goal is to restore the resident's ability to function at the highest practical level. |
