Residential/Respite
Care Program
(License
#380504099)
Kimochi Home has the capacity to house up to 20 ambulatory seniors
in either single or shared rooms. The residential program offers
24-hour supervised, non-medical care. Staff provides assistance
with activities of daily living (ADL) such as bathing, dressing,
and taking medications.
The respite care program is temporary, short term, 24-hour supervised
care for seniors. This service is available for families in need
of backup care for an elderly member, especially during periods
of caregiver burnout and stress or during family vacations which
necessitate leaving a senior behind. The program is also an option
for seniors who are being discharged from the hospital or who have
recently been ill and need a temporary place to stay until they
feel healthy enough to return home. Both programs feature the following
services:
| • |
