Providing Specialized Care for Geriatric and Aging Individuals

At Kimwell Nursing Home, we understand the unique behavioral challenges faced by individuals in the geriatric and aging population. Our dedicated team of Board Certified Behavioral Analysts (BCBAs) brings their expertise in behavior analysis to provide specialized care and support, enhancing the quality of life for our residents.

What is a Board Certified Behavioral Analyst (BCBA)?

A Board Certified Behavioral Analyst (BCBA) is a highly trained professional who specializes in behavior analysis. BCBAs utilize evidence-based techniques to analyze behavior patterns, develop effective interventions, and implement strategies that promote positive behavioral changes.

Comprehensive Behavioral Assessment and Analysis

At Kimwell Nursing Home, our BCBAs conduct comprehensive assessments to gain a deep understanding of each individual's unique behavioral and cognitive needs. Through observation and analysis, they identify the underlying causes of challenging behaviors and develop personalized intervention plans.

By taking into consideration the individual's medical history, social environment, and personal preferences, our BCBAs create tailored strategies that address specific behavioral goals. These goals may involve reducing aggression, increasing social engagement, improving daily living skills, managing anxiety, or enhancing emotional well-being.

Person-Centered Behavioral Support Plans

Based on the comprehensive assessment, our BCBAs design person-centered behavioral support plans that outline specific strategies and interventions to address the identified behaviors. These plans are developed in collaboration with the individual, their family, and our multidisciplinary care team.

Our BCBAs employ evidence-based intervention techniques such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), positive reinforcement, cognitive behavioral therapy, and functional behavior assessments. They ensure that the support plans are regularly evaluated and modified as needed to achieve optimal outcomes.

Collaboration with Interdisciplinary Team

At Kimwell Nursing Home, we recognize the importance of a collaborative approach to provide holistic care. Our BCBAs work closely with our interdisciplinary team, including physicians, nurses, psychologists, occupational therapists, and social workers, to ensure that all aspects of an individual's care are addressed.

This collaborative approach ensures that the behavioral support plans align with the overall care goals and encompass various therapeutic interventions. Through regular team meetings, our BCBAs provide ongoing training and guidance to the care staff, ensuring consistent implementation of the support plans.

Continuity of Care and Ongoing Monitoring

Kimwell Nursing Home is committed to providing continuity of care and ongoing monitoring of individual progress. Our BCBAs closely monitor the effectiveness of the behavioral support plans, making necessary adjustments to optimize outcomes.

Regular data collection and analysis allow our BCBAs to track behavior patterns, measure progress, and refine intervention strategies. This systematic approach ensures that each resident receives the personalized care they deserve, promoting overall well-being and quality of life.
