The nursing staff address individual health needs by communicating with physicians, seeking specialized treatments, observing the resident to ensure effectiveness of the prescribed medication, and scheduling appointments for additional needs, such as dentistry. An EKG is completed on-site upon admission and if an assessment is requested by their doctor. 

Medical Doctor + Physician Services

Physician services are provided by a licensed physician. The Medical Director performs an initial evaluation at admission and monitors the health of each resident. Optometry services are available on-site as needed.

Dietary

7th Avenue Center provides three nutritious meals and snacks daily. Menus are reviewed by a registered dietician to ensure that meals are balanced and meet residents’ nutritional needs. Special diets, including but not limited to diabetic, vegetarian and vegan diets are regularly accommodated.

The Resident Council provides feedback on menus and clients vote on ‘Resident’s Choice’ meals and menus for special events such as barbecues, holidays and resident birthday parties. Cultural considerations are also included when preparing meals and snacks.
