The friendliness and dedication of staff qualified in caring for senior men and women are hallmarks of The Dixon House mission. Certified nursing staff, supervised by a registered nurse, who is always available, take the time to understand and respond to the unique needs of each resident. Residents will receive a high level of personalized care 24 hours a day with the added security of knowing professionally-trained staff are available should an emergency arise.
Working closely with families and personal physicians, we are able to develop a tailored plan of assistance and care, with a focus on keeping residents as independent as possible. Regularly scheduled assessments by our registered nurse together with bi–annual pharmacy reviews ensure each resident’s most current healthcare needs are met. With smiling faces and caring hands, all of our staff is committed to the comfort and safety of our residents as we help them navigate through life’s transitions and enhance their happiness.
We offer support to those residents who need gentle reminders and help with any activity of daily living, such as bathing, dressing and medication administration, to name a few. With over 25 years experience, our Kitchen Manager works closely with the Delegating Registered Nurse in addressing necessary changes in diet as they may occur, ensuring nutritional and tasteful meals are prepared. Our exceptional staff will go above and beyond the standard care so each resident can feel as though they are just like home. Family can enjoy peace of mind knowing the health and happiness of Mom or Dad are in excellent hands.
