Our
long term care communities participate in the accreditation process
conducted by the Canadian Council on Health Services Accreditation. The accreditation
survey and site visits offer us the opportunity to have our performance measured by external,
objective inspectors.
As
a quality organization, S&R Nursing Homes believe the accreditation
process demonstrates to
the community that our homes achieve high standards of care. Accreditation
is an in-depth comparison
of our Homes services and operations against a set of national standards.
Key areas that are examined include resident care, delivery of service,
information management, human resource policies and our management of
the environment.
We
believe in the philosophy of continuous improvement and this philosophy
is supported by both
the accreditation process and the Quality Council that is in place in
each home. Our Quality Council
is where residents, families and team members sit together to ensure
that excellence in care is maintained.
