Senior LIFEsteps Benefits
SENIOR LIFESTEPS: OUR MISSION
The Senior LIFEsteps System provides individuals, their families, and healthcare professionals with the guidance they need to make decisions to maximize well-being, promote independence, and protect dignity.
Senior LIFEsteps helps reassure seniors and their families. Clear, straightforward evaluations contribute to a reliable measurement of each individual’s overall status, making a strong case in favor of a recommended placement and/or services. Follow up evaluations ensure that seniors continue to receive appropriate services as their status changes. Senior LIFEsteps engages seniors in maximizing their well-being. Seniors participate actively in Senior LIFEsteps evaluations. They learn about their strengths and weaknesses and are more likely to recognize and accept appropriate solutions. Senior LIFEsteps helps improve risk management. Challenges in balance and gait, medication management, memory impairment, and more contribute to seniors’ risk of falling and other injury. The right placement and services minimize risk, help avoid injuries, and can help reduce insurance costs. Senior LIFEsteps promotes efficient use of staff and resources. Using Senior LIFEsteps as part of a standard admissions process and for periodic follow up can provide the data you need to profile your population and make better decisions about staffing and resources.
