So that’s for us.Īnd then we have independent living.

And in our particular case, that’s where we have a license to bring some Medicaid residents, whereas our assisted living does not. And it’s a form of assisted living where they have access to similar things. They’re not part of a bigger campus, so it’s sometimes it’s called CPCH, comprehensive personal care home.

And a lot of them are maybe free standing. Another type that we have here is what’s called CPC, another acronym, and it’s a comprehensive personal care. That’s the kind of thing that we would offer assistance with.Īnd also managing medications and things like that. So these are folks who need little help with certain things, maybe medications, maybe what they call activities of daily living, ADLS, another little acronym.Īnd that’s just everything, eating, dressing, feeding, whatever it takes for you to get through the day, whatever all your activities are that you think of that you do in the course of a day from making your coffee all the way to getting ready for bed and brushing your teeth. They don’t have any of the other services. A lot of places are free-standing nursing homes. And it’s almost like having a little mini nursing home upstairs. It’s also called post-acute care, longterm care. We have skilled nursing, which is the highest level of care. So we have three levels here, actually four when you think about it. So in theory, residents, who need something, can advance maybe temporarily to a different level and then come back, let’s say, to their independent living.
And what that means is that you have a number of care levels available on one campus. And it stands for continuing care retirement community. Yeah, we’re technically what’s called a CCRC, which is. Well, so shifting subjects a little a bit, why don’t we talk a little bit about some of the different kinds of care that we offer here, because we have a variety at the House of the Good Shepherd? And I’m joined today by my co-host the Reverend Sean Carty, who is our chaplain. And welcome to another episode of House Guest, the podcast about all things related to the House of the Good Shepherd, a retirement community in Hackettstown, New Jersey. “Episode #4 – The Language of Health Care” by Sue Lanza and Shawn Carty.
