The ONLY local placement agency in Louisville with an LMSW and a Registered Nurse on staff!
Q: How are the new laws with regard to assisted living going to affect residents?
A:The regulations and license name designations are changing in Kentucky which will require more reporting and assessments from the facilities.. You’ll need an experienced guide to understand the ins and outs of these new regulations. Some facilities will barely meet regulations regarding having nurses while others will offer 24/7 nursing but all will be called Assisted Living Basic Health or Assisted Living DC. so don’t assume all are offering the same services because of their license designation!! Some Assisted Living communites are remaining a social model and others are converting to the Assisted Living BH (Basic Health) model.
We are the ONLY placement agency that attended the state meetings and participated in receiving training to understand these new laws that are being put in place. We can help you understand how the differences will affect the care your loved one receives.
Q: How do you determine which senior care communities we should consider?
A: We do an in-depth analysis to determine the type of care most suited to your needs. From this, we can tell you which kind of care is best for you. We then look at every facility in the geographic area you prefer that offers the services needed and we help you compare every aspect. Once we find several you are interested in, we then schedule tours, and can go with you if you wish. We have sources to compare each facility and can give a very detailed history of services, amenities, any complaints and or fines in the facility’s history.
Q: Where do you get the information about the community?
A: We personally visit every facility, take detailed notes and enter the information into our content management system. This allows us not only to give an accounting of amenities, services, and logistic information, we get a feel for the personality of the facility, its staff as well as the residents. This helps us to better match you with an atmosphere that will be more to your taste.
Q: How often do you visit the community?
A: We are in and out of each community on a regular basis and know the personality of each facility. We help to find a place you can afford, where you’ll get the help you need, and where you’ll feel at home.
Q: How do you get paid for your services?
A: The facility to which we refer you pays our fees. There are only 2 communities we don’t contract with and this is our choice because the care is so bad. We are the ONLY FREE senior living referral service in Kentucky and Pinellas County West Coast Florida that refers to all communities at no charge to our clients.
