Services
Individual Psychotherapy
One-on-one weekly therapy sessions improve quality of life for seniors experiencing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Our licensed providers establish therapeutic relationships to achieve measurable treatment goals. This service helps residents adjust to changes in mental status and loss of independence.
Initial Diagnostic Assessment
Comprehensive assessments evaluate residents' mental health history and current needs. We create personalized care plans with objective, measurable goals for treating depression, anxiety, and behavioral challenges. This forms the foundation for all subsequent treatment.
Treatment Plan Reviews
Quarterly reviews assess treatment effectiveness and adjust goals as needed. Our team determines if residents require continued services or discharge based on progress toward outcome-based objectives. This ensures ongoing care relevance and effectiveness.
Coordinator Visits
Regular facility visits provide staff education, treatment plan support, and problem-solving assistance. Our coordinators help nursing teams address resident challenges and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements through hands-on support.
Documentation Review
We maintain clinical consistency and regulatory compliance through thorough documentation reviews. Our systems ensure adherence to Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance requirements while maintaining high-quality care standards across all facilities.
