Senior Exercise Program
The EverHome team shares a passion and commitment to helping our senior citizen population take an active role in their overall health and well being. In our Healthy Living Program, under the direction of Physical Therapist we provide a group exercise program in assisted living and senior communities on a weekly basis. Strength and range of motion are important factors in keeping seniors independent. Exercises are specifically designed, so seniors have no difficulty performing them.
Fall Prevention
This program offers quarterly screenings of all residents who wish to participate. The goal is to identify residents who are at risk for accidents such as falls due to changes in strength, range of motion, and/or cognition. Evaluation and treatment may be recommended by the Physical and Occupational Therapist to improve function and safety. EverHome will work with Medicare and other insurance companies when seniors need an intensive individualized program.
Morning Current Events
EverHome team members will work with the activities department to provide stimulating conversation and socialization. This program is designed in conjunction with an occupational therapist with the goal to keep seniors oriented about news, facility activities, and current local/world happenings.
Healthy Living Program
When a healthcare staff member interacts with seniors consistently, she or he can more readily identify potential health risks with residents. EverHome will dedicate a nurse to coordinate wellness and preventative activities in the facility. On a monthly basis this nurse will provide a blood pressure screening and be available for residents’ questions or concerns regarding their health. If the resident chooses, the nurse can act as a liaison with physician and family.
Community Education and Resources
The team of EverHome has extensive training and resources in the management of care for the senior population. On a quarterly basis, informative programs will be held for the facility residents and their families with a focus on preventative care, healthy habits and strategies for aging safely at home. Outside guest speakers as well as EverHome team members will share their knowledge and expertise.
