 At Victoria Mews our goal is to promote wellness and help our residents achieve
a maximum level of independence. We accomplish this goal by valuing the input
of every member of our Wellness staff. Our staff exhibits a strong team commitment,
and we encourage each one to take initiative and be an advocate for our residents.
We have also built a strong multidisciplinary team consisting of doctors, nurses,
therapists and other healthcare professionals.
Our professional Nurses are responsible for maintaining Victoria Mews exceptionally high standard of care. The preadmission assessment sets the standard for resident and family input into their individualized service plan. Professional nursing assessments are conducted on admission, semiannually and whenever there is a change in a resident’s health status. Wellness checks are performed regularly by our nursing staff and include assessing vital signs, weights, medication management and mental and physical health.
