Elevating Personal Hygiene

A Commitment to Comfort and Dignity at Senior Haven

At Senior Haven, we understand the importance of maintaining personal hygiene not only for physical health but also for overall well-being and self-esteem. Our personalized approach to personal hygiene ensures that every resident receives the care and support they need to feel fresh, clean, and confident every day.

Compassionate and Respectful Care: Our dedicated caregivers are trained to provide personal hygiene assistance with compassion, dignity, and respect. We understand that personal care can be a sensitive and private matter, which is why we prioritize building trusting relationships with our residents based on empathy, understanding, and discretion.

Tailored Care Plans: We recognize that every resident has unique needs and preferences when it comes to personal hygiene. That’s why we take the time to create individualized care plans that are tailored to each resident’s specific requirements. Whether it’s assistance with bathing, grooming, dressing, or toileting, our caregivers work closely with residents and their families to ensure that personal care routines are personalized to meet their needs and preferences.

Comfortable and Safe Environment: Our community is designed to provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for residents to receive personal hygiene care. From well-equipped bathrooms with grab bars and non-slip surfaces to soothing toiletries and soft towels, we’ve thoughtfully designed our facilities to promote comfort, safety, and dignity for all residents.

Promoting Independence and Autonomy: While our caregivers are always available to provide assistance with personal hygiene tasks, we also encourage and support residents in maintaining as much independence and autonomy as possible. Our goal is to empower residents to participate in their own personal care routines to the best of their ability, fostering a sense of pride, accomplishment, and self-confidence.

Hygiene Education and Support: In addition to providing hands-on assistance with personal hygiene, we also offer education and support to help residents maintain optimal hygiene practices. Whether it’s tips for skincare, oral hygiene, or managing incontinence, our caregivers are here to provide guidance, encouragement, and practical assistance to promote good hygiene habits and overall well-being.

24-Hour Availability: Our commitment to personal hygiene extends around the clock. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or night, our caregivers are available to provide personal hygiene assistance whenever it’s needed. Residents can rest assured knowing that help is always just a call away, ensuring that they feel fresh, clean, and comfortable at all times.

At Senior Haven, we believe that personal hygiene is not just about physical cleanliness but also about preserving dignity, promoting self-esteem, and enhancing overall quality of life. With our compassionate caregivers, personalized care plans, and commitment to dignity and respect, we strive to create a supportive and nurturing environment where every resident feels valued, cared for, and confident in their own skin.

Senior Haven RCF employs and trains caring, professional caregivers to address personal hygiene needs for our residents. Whether the task can be performed independently or with assistance, our staff understands every body-type’s unique demands, and we ensure these tasks are performed regularly in a careful, dignified manner.

As we age, it is important to ensure proper and regular personal hygiene. These activities can become more difficult the older we get, such as showering, grooming, toileting, foot care, and dental care (periodontics). In our experience, seniors will often neglect personal hygiene rather than ask for help, because it can be embarrassing sharing these activities with someone else. Neglect of personal hygiene can have negative repercussions for an individual’s overall health and well-being. That is why a personalized care plan including hygiene is a part of our program at Senior Haven RCF.

At Senior Haven RCF, we understand the sensitive nature of hygienic tasks and we take great measures to ensure the dignity of our residents. Our care staff are trained to perform these tasks efficiently and in a way that makes the resident feel comfortable. Personal hygiene may seem like a small task for many people, but to us it is a critical component toward a healthy, enjoyable lifestyle.

There is truth in Senior Haven's website representations of the care provided to residents and the facility itself. My husband arrived having been months in a specialty hospital and a skilled nursing facility; both facilities egregiously overstating or concealing information about medical services, staffing, outsourced connections, and the law. Having worked urgently through the State Ombudsman, SHIBA, and “A Place for Mom”, our family was thankful to be directed to a safe haven where his unique needs and life history are acknowledged, respected, and attended to. There is only one chance to make a first impression, and Senior Haven team delivered, not only on my first visit but with their continuing dedication to competent and compassionate care. Communication too has been very helpful in caring for my husband. A relative newcomer, he has been warmly welcomed by all on-site staff, outside medical providers, and residents (who have made a point of telling us what a good place it is to live). Given the nature of health care in America, and particularly caring for our vulnerable elders, Senior Haven seems to have the leadership and team in place to follow through with their assurances. It is a relatively small building with a homey atmosphere, very clean, and the food is good.

Workers here are great However management here are very immature and unprofessional. there are no benefits, meanwhile you work at other places you get bonuses for picking up shift here you don’t.

I loved working here. I love most all of the caregivers and med techs. It was an honor and a privilege to care for the residents! Most employees there are full of love! Some people who have left were so warm and loving and made me feel welcome from day one. But then some left and it was so sad but then others came who were so nice. I loved the residents soo much. I loved my managers at first. But things did change unfortunately and certain staff were still great but many were unreliable without a worth ethic. And some members of management were basically plain not nice and disrespectful . There were some incidents that were handled so so poorly . I was hoping to work here for the rest of my career but unfortunately there were unacceptable , unprofessional incidents with management and I felt betrayed after my hard work and dedication. I was loved by my coworkers , ie med techs, caregivers, activities , front desk . But many quit due to management problems which basically amounted to poor treatment , Unprofessionalism and betrayal. But perhaps if management changes , it could be wonderful . It was exciting because they got approved for memory care for the front section.
