Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started in making health care decisions for myself or loved one?

Your primary care physician should be in the decision-making process and he or she can tell you about your loved one's physical, mental and emotional well-being so that you can start to understand what care will be the most beneficial.

What is Medicare

Medicare is a health insurance program for people 65 or older or people under 65 with certain disabilities or end-stage renal disease. Medicare does not cover all expenses and is not designed to pay for long-term custodial care. so it is important to understand the program. For patients meeting requirements, Medicare helps cover the costs for hospital stays, skilled nursing home stays up to 100 days and hospice care. Our admission team members will be happy to provide you with current rates and coverage.

What is Medicaid

The Medicaid program provides medical benefits to low-income people who have no medical insurance or inadequate medical insurance. The federal government establishes general guidelines for the program, but each state establishes the program's requirements including eligibility. You can find out more about the Medicaid program through cms.gov or by talking to our admissions team.

What should I look for when choosing a skilled nursing and rehabilitation center?

For short-term stays focused on rehabbing a patient home, ask the center about its successful outcomes treating patients with your or your loved one's illness, injury or disease. Ask about the staff's knowledge about post-hospital care. Tour the center for cleanliness, friendliness of staff and amenities that are important to you. Ask to sample food and visit with patients similar to you or your loved one.

What should I look for when choosing an assisted living center?

In assisted living centers, seniors maintain control and independence while receiving assistance with daily activities such as bathing and dressing. Around-the-clock nursing staff is usually not available. Ask for a tour and visit the center during off hours. Sample food, check out the activities schedule, visit with residents and ask about talking to family members. Ask the administrative team about its current survey history. Most locations require private payment, so ask about cost and consider whether this works with your financial situation.

What should I think about when moving a loved one into a long-term care setting?

Making the move to a long-term care setting can be one of the most difficult decisions you make. To help you and your loved one get acquainted with the center, make sure you discuss these items with the health care providers so they can help make the transition as smooth as possible. What are the patient's diet likes and dislikes? How mobile is she? How much can she manage her personal care and hygiene? What were her former living conditions like? What support did she have? What role does religion play in your loved one's life? What are your loved one's routines and habits, as well as hobbies? What about mental capacity? Does your loved one fear new surroundings? Does she socialize easily?
