Environment

At Founders Plaza, we prioritize providing a comfortable, safe, and joyful environment. Our life enrichment program includes daily activities, respecting residents' choices in engagement. Safety measures include routine in-services, security protocols, fall prevention programs, medication management, and our wander guard system for mobile residents at risk of wandering. For dementia patients exhibiting exit-seeking behavior, please note that we are not a secure unit and would not be a suitable option.

Support Services

We have resources in place, with our social worker acting as a bridge for residents transitioning from the rehab program back to the community. Numerous resources are available to meet various needs.

Transportation

Our facility provides transportation to assist residents to and from scheduled physical appointments that align with their care at Founders Plaza.

Dining & Culinary Services

We offer in-house dining with three meals and snacks daily, catering to residents' dietary needs outlined by their doctor. Our culinary team, overseen by the Dietary Manager and nutritionist, ensures personalized meal service.

Concerns or Complaint

While striving to be a home for our residents, we acknowledge the importance of certain amenities. We provide a guardian angel for each resident, and administrative staff with personal relationship with resident, acting as a one-on-one contact and a lifeline for their family. Administrative staff, including a Director of Nursing and/or Administrator, are available for concerns. A hotline is also in place for reporting concerns, as well as our Accushield system collects feedback during monthly guest check-ins.

Cost

As previously emailed, our private pay rates are $225 per day for a private room and $175 per day for a semi-private room. Latricia in our admissions office to explore benefits or clarify levels of care. We accept MCR and most commercial plans for skilled services as well as PVT pay and Medicaid for the residents who are qualified. Depending on your loved ones level of care could depend on which payer source is accepted.

Communication

Communication varies based on family expectations. Direct communication is available with the responsible party. Routine care plans address adjustments and expectations. Additional updates can be discussed with our social worker. Due to HIPPA specific guidelines must be followed with who and how we share patient information.

Short-Term

We offer both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care. In addition we do offer respite visits. Short-term rehab which typically follows a post-hospitalization or surgery, typically lasts 20-30 days. This is called a skilled stay and is often covered by Medicare or commercial insurance. Contact Latricia to verify benefits.

Pet Friendly

Pet visits must be prearranged with administration, meeting a specific criteria. All shot records must be provided for consideration. Pets are allowed only in resident rooms, and approval depends on roommate considerations. While we welcome visits from four legged loved ones, pets cannot live or stay at Founders Plaza.

COVID Vaccine

We make vaccines available, including those for COVID and flu. Contact our social worker for more information or arrangements.

Age In Place

Founders Plaza supports residents through aging in place. We work with many services like hospice to provide a wide array of services needed to our aging population. To explore our offerings, please coordinate with Steven or Latricia for an in-house tour to learn more on Founders Plaza.
