Welcome to Kimwell Nursing Home, a leader in providing exceptional geriatric and aging care. We are thrilled to announce that our CMS Faculty has recently published groundbreaking research on the revolutionary "Circle Up" program in NEJM Catalyst.
Introduction: Revolutionizing Geriatric and Aging Care
At Kimwell Nursing Home, we are dedicated to enhancing the lives of our elderly residents. Through constant research and innovation, we aim to redefine the standards of geriatric and aging care. Our CMS Faculty, renowned experts in their respective fields, have worked tirelessly to develop and implement the "Circle Up" program.
The "Circle Up" Program
The "Circle Up" program is a comprehensive approach to geriatric care that focuses on individualized attention, holistic well-being, and creating a sense of community. It combines medical expertise, personalized care plans, social engagement, and advanced technology to ensure the highest quality of life for our residents.
Benefits of the "Circle Up" Program:
- Individualized Care: Each resident receives a customized care plan tailored to their unique needs and preferences. Our CMS Faculty utilizes state-of-the-art assessment tools and ongoing evaluations to adjust the care plan as needed.
- Holistic Approach: We believe in treating the whole person, not just their medical conditions. Our program addresses physical, emotional, and social well-being, integrating activities, therapies, and companionship into daily routines.
- Social Engagement: Loneliness and isolation can have a detrimental impact on elderly individuals. The "Circle Up" program promotes social interaction through group activities, outings, and the creation of a supportive community within our facility.
