In an environment based on mutual respect, we anticipate your appropriate behavior toward other Residents and employees at all times. There will be no physical or verbal abuse tolerated.  If, for any reason, that does occur, immediate steps will be taken to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of the other Residents and our employees.

A. Informed Consent

Before you receive any treatment your doctor is required by law to secure informed consent from you, or if you are incapable of giving informed consent, your legal representative. Your physician should tell you:

1. The treatment procedure involved.
2. Medically acceptable alternatives.
3. Any substantial risks and benefits of the treatment procedure.

Your physician should give you enough information for you to make a knowing decision without coercion or undue influence

B. Advanced Directives

Florida law recognizes Advance Directives as a means for an individual to make his/her own choices about medical care and treatment while that person is mentally and physically able to do so. Advance Directives cover care treatment that will be needed at a time when the person no longer has the capacity to make these decisions. Having an Advance Directive is not a condition of admission or continued stay in our facility. We do recommend that you consider an advance directive so that you can ensure your wishes are carried out. Advance Directives may be written or oral. However, a written Advance Directive is better as there is less concern that it will be misinterpreted. Written Advance Directives should be signed by the individual and two (2) witnesses, one who is not a blood relative or spouse.  Detailed information is available upon request.

The opportunity to wear clothing that is personal, comfortable, and familiar is important to one’s identity. We encourage you to dress appropriately and to be active in as many programs as possible. Washable personal clothing, preferably no iron, is suggested.

When deciding on clothing, please consider the available space for storage.

Should you feel that you need home care services there are local providers that provide these services. The selection of these care providers is at the Resident’s discretion.

Some Residents prefer to make their own beds and straighten their own rooms and personal items. While there is no obligation for you to do this, we encourage such activities. This provides some exercise but more importantly may be helpful in fostering independence and a feeling of self-worth. If you desire or need assistance, our employees will be responsible for making beds and keeping Residents’ rooms clean. A daily trash pick-up schedule of each room is given with a weekly deep cleaning and linen change routine.

Rooms requiring more frequent cleaning visits will be coordinated by the Executive Director

All medications, as well as any item used for medical treatment that is supervised and administered by Community’s staff, must have a physician’s order. It is important that our nursing staff knows what medications you are taking if you are administering your own medications. This will assist us in supplying information to your doctor or emergency personnel if you become ill. Therefore, the nursing staff needs to be informed of any prescription and non-prescription items that you are taking.
