Behavioral Health
Mental Health issues are a serious epidemic in today's society, especially in the Senior Care population. Often, factors that impact seniors such as the death of a friend, or the failure of a family member to visit, can have a profound impact on mental health. Sometimes, unfortunately, these types of influences can also induce behaviors in the elderly, which can be problematic from a care perspective. There is a wide variation in the types of behaviors that can be exhibited and some, such as refusing to shower, self-isolation, behaving inappropriately, are more difficult to treat or manage than others. Although not all of these behaviors can be managed or cared for in a Skilled Nursing Facility, many can. We have a team of clinicians that have experience with both mental health and behavioral health issues.
