Palliative Care includes care for catheterization, dressing changes, diabetes and other care needs requiring the services of a registered nurse and other heavy care needs such as being bedridden, lifting (one or two person lifting or Hoyer lift required), or total non-ambulatory or advanced Alzheimer’s disease which requires more staff time. (Night wanderers, abusive or violent residents or those who need two-person assistance in transfer may be beyond the realm of care we can provide.) Also included are special diets, low sodium, low cholesterol, high fiber, mechanical soft, etc., as prescribed by the resident’s attending Physician.
