Rates

easons rates are separated into three levels. This structure helps determine the amount of care required to meet the needs and comfort of individuals as time progresses. Thus, it is of great importance that we appropriately place residents in a compatible environment with specialized activity programs geared to their capabilities. Alzheimer's does not affect everyone the same way or in the same manner, so adjustments from one level to another will be dependent on the individual needs.

Not all qualifying behaviors may be present, but one or more exhibited behaviors may be sufficient to warrant a move to the next level to ensure the individual's comfort.

Our staff is specially trained in the level of care they provide. Placement decisions involve a multi-disciplinary team which consists of the Administrator, Director of Nursing, Social Services Director, and our Medical Director. The following guide will help you understand the levels of care and criteria we use at Seasons Care Center.

Please note that this guide is not conclusive and should be used only as a general outline of conditions. Careful consideration will be on an individual basis.
