Galbraith Health Care Community

Compassion / Caring / Respect

It is the primary responsibility of every Carington associate, to provide residents and their families the support, comfort and honesty needed during the difficult task of choosing a nursing facility. After admission, we will continue to provide excellence in customer service while delivering the care that a loved one deserves.

Every Carington facility is filled with the warmth and feeling of home. Family and friends are encouraged to visit frequently and spend quality time with their loved ones. Dining areas are filled with the tastes and smells of home cooking. Residents can be comfortable expressing their food preferences during their stay with us.

It is our goal to provide residents with the highest standards of quality care and a personal commitment to their health and happiness. Daily activities are scheduled and participation is encouraged so that residents can maintain active, healthy lifestyles. Careful consideration is given to the appropriate selection of roommates, paying close attention to personalities and each individual�s need for care.

We encourage open communication from the family members of our residents. We will address all facets of each resident�s well being through team conferences, a positive attitude and quality care.

Activities and Involvement

Courtyards and patios glow with sunlight. A homelike atmosphere fills the buildings and grounds, while the faces of our residents and friends light up with another active day. Recreational trips, crafts, parties, dancing or activities are planned to emphasize individuals receiving pleasure and satisfaction in their own accomplishments, at their own pace.

Our activity directors are specially trained to understand the fragile limits of age. All residents are encouraged to be as active as possible through our activities programs designed to meet their special needs.

In addition to a diverse calendar of activities, traditional religious services are held for all faiths. Providing the opportunity for spiritual growth and development is very important. Local visiting ministries offer many enjoyable devotional programs.

We keep our residents involved in community service, so each person knows their contributions matter. Activities may include collecting food for an open-door pantry or just registering to vote at the next election. Through our Resident Council, which develops recommendations on all policies, our residents have a voice in the issues that affect their lives.

We encourage residents to be involved in their surroundings by reading to others, watering plants, delivering mail or escorting another resident. This activity supports interaction and independence while encouraging new friendships. Companionship is a vital need for everyone.

For those unable to function independently, in-room activities and sensory stimulation bring their world to life. The senses of touch, sight, smell and hearing may be aroused through activities designed to keep the mind active. Improving the quality of life is important for all our residents.
