Assisted living
Recent studies reveal that sustained connection to 'social networks'is vital to seniors. It's a fact that regular involvement by families and friends in seniors' lives has dramatic impact on physical and mental health and longevity. But in assisted living settings, where elders live apart from their busy families, maintaining these vital links can be difficult at best.
CaringFamily delivers the first service designed to provide this important benefit to seniors in assisted living, their families and the professional caregivers that support them. The result: increased facility occupancy, profitability, and customer satisfaction, without additional effort or net cost to your operation.
CaringFamily's breakthrough service can deliver a wide range of powerful benefits for your entire organization, including:
- Longer resident stays. The science (learn more) driving CaringFamily's service predicts longer resident stays, greater demand for space in each community, and ultimately, more profits per facility. In a typical scenario, the service pays for itself if resident stays are extended by as little as a single month.
- Positive marketing and sales results. Elders and families all experience 'separation anxiety' when evaluating new living arrangements like yours. CaringFamily's service is a powerful new way to alleviate such concerns, making your facilities the standout choice in a crowded senior care marketplace. And the service's network can deliver new lead flow—locally and across the country.
- Shared caregiving with family, by offering those who care most about your residents the opportunity to get more directly involved in their care, even if they live far away. Sending and receiving daily messages is as simple for them as the email they already use, and as easy as pencil and paper for your residents. Automated weekly communications summaries keep families posted on activity and provide you a forum for sharing news from your operation.
- A higher level of care for every resident. CaringFamily's system allows your staff to take advantage of a wide range of caregiving outreach methods—from automated daily greetings to your entire community to individually customized messages on topics of interest. Academic studies show that this kind of regular communications can help stave off senior withdrawal, depression and early-stage dementia.
- Reduced costs, by streamlining—and in some cases, automating—many of the routine administrative tasks that consume your staff. Distributing the weekly menu, an upcoming event announcement, or a daily greeting to your entire resident population is as simple as pushing a button.
