Resident-centered care means quality of life  

Josephine’s skilled nursing program provides a broad range of care services for those who are very frail, or who have dementia, or who cannot take care of themselves because of physical, emotional, or mental problems. Often, the needs of these individuals can no longer be met by family, friends, and other community resources. Josephine stands ready to provide the programs and services these individuals need in an environment of warmth, dignity and respect. The goal? Providing the highest quality of life possible.  

Foremost to fostering a high quality of life is Josephine’s emphasis on resident-centered care. Our caregivers place supreme value on listening and knowing a resident’s backgrounds and her or her personal preferences, and work closely with residents and their families to ensure that resident choices are respected.  

None of this would be possible without our by highly-trained RNs, LPNs, and certified nursing assistants. To encourage personal and professional growth, Josephine holds regular in-house training programs and supports employee continuing education through our popular scholarship program. These efforts, along with Josephine’s commitment to employer-funded health insurance and employer-matched retirement contributions, mean that we have a skilled and dedicated staff and an excellent retention rate – one of the best in long term care.  

Our caregivers integrate a wide variety of standard and complementary therapies to bring our residents to a better state of health. Daily exercise classes give residents greater vitality, improving balance, flexibility and overall fitness. Many find the integration of therapies like massage, yoga, therapeutic touch and progressive relaxation helpful in reducing pain and stress.  

Josephine believes that even with chronic illness, residents can find growth and fulfillment. The focus of our activities program is to create as many opportunities as possible for that to happen. Our activities range from a quiet visit from a volunteer or chaplain to music concerts, dining out, and even overnight camping trips. Residents are also invited to take part in intergenerational activities with the children in our childcare program.  

We’re proud of what we do here and love to give tours. Call us to schedule a tour and a complementary meal.
