...Abstract Assisted living is a fairly new and unique part of the long term care continuum of services. The goal of assisted living is to maximize the independence of older adults while living in a homelike environment. This paper will provide an overview of assisted living facilities including the number of facilities and residents, costs, services, and growth expectations. Challenges with oversight and regulations will be discussed as well as solutions to the problem. Challenges and solutions for staffing and training issues will also be discussed. The paper will also highlight “In Loving Hands Assisted Living” which is a local assisted living facility that I called and visited to aid in my research. I will give an overview of the Fort Washington area in terms of older adults and the long term care market. The challenges with this provider are marketing and staffing for which I suggest low cost advertisement and comprehensive staffing patterns. Lastly, a conclusion and summary are provided for the current state and future of assisted living facilities. Overview of Assisted Living While the definition of assisted living facilities vary from state to state, this type of facility is generally defined as “a housing option that involves the delivery of professionally managed, supportive services and depending on state regulations, nursing services in a group setting that is residential in character and appearance” (Evashwick, 2005, p 152).

...ASA is a non-profit homeless shelter whose mission is to serve families with children. It provides more than 100 beds, allocated so that families are housed together in single units. The agency employs four case managers and one case management supervisor. Case management focuses on assuring that residents have access to community medical care, including general medicine, psychiatric services, dental, and vision services. In addition, case managers coordinate access to community services, such as transportation to vocational training and workplace sites, places of worship, and 12-step meetings (for those in recovery). Finally, case managers assure that children’s educational needs are met through access to school and after-school programs. These services, of course, are provided by organizations and agencies external to CASA. CASA employs three mental health workers and one clinical supervisor.

...sense of apprehension and uncertainty with regard to the process. Gathering information from the Small Business Administration is the second option to explore and consider for the purpose of applying for a $20,000 small business loan (sba.gov, 2009). Description of the problem The original plan was to start the company, conduct business from the personal residence, and limit the service exclusively to the residents of Elbert County, Colorado. However, preliminary demographic research indicated a significantly lower percentage of elderly residents than first expected; therefore, leading to the need of expanding service to a supplementary county. Opening up service to a second county will permit the inclusion of additional physically and mentally disabled adults and children. The purpose of the business will be to service the elderly, physically, and mentally disabled residents focusing on personal care and life skills. Elderly residents will benefit from the services provided by allowing personal care providers to enter their homes and help them with non-medical assistance such as home upkeep, personal everyday tasks, and shopping for home supplies. The physically and mentally disabled clients will benefit from education in life...

...can now be treated successfully. And during last two decades critical care medicine has undergone rapid changes and emerged as a discipline by itself. Intensive care units (ICU), also called critical care or intensive therapy departments, is highly specified and sophisticated area of a hospital which is specifically designed, staffed, located, furnished and equipped, dedicated to management of critically ill patients whose conditions are life-threatening and need constant, close monitoring and support from equipment and medication to keep normal body functions going. It is a department with dedicated medical, nursing and allied staff. It operates with defined policies; protocols and procedures, having its own quality control, education, training and research programmes. It is emerging as a separate specialty and can no longer be regarded purely as part of anaesthesia, Medicine, surgery or any other speciality. It has to have its own separate team in terms of doctors, nursing personnel and other staff who are tuned to the requirement of the speciality. Definition: “ICU is the specialty nursing unit designed, equipped, and staffed with specially skilled personnel for treating very critical patients with potentially reversible lesions or those requiring specialized care and equipment”.

...the specific needs of Kava’s residents. I had recently graduated college and as my first assignment I was given a life changing challenge. Kava was in need of survival education. The Educational Company was sent to Kava by the Red Cross Organization to help educate the civilians in disaster survival. Kava had been hit by tsunamis and earthquakes, which led to disease and death. My second analysis I performed a Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threats (SWOT) analysis. It was discovered in the SWOT analysis that communication would be a major weakness. This was a situation which could be resolved. The communication weakness was a non-critical, but urgent situation. Four years later, 2014, tourism has flourished and the residents of Kava have expanded their survival abilities. The following is a recap of my last four years on Kava. The Evaluation Plan The evaluation plan was to ensure The Educational Company can provide the residents of Kava the education services they needed to survive during and after a disaster. The objectives of the evaluation were to answer the following questions: - Are plan decisions being implemented? • Develop a project team - Is the plan being maintained so that it is a useful tool? • Adhering to proposed timeline -Is the community able to survive on its own? • Hire and train new employees The Educational Company developed a project team with Alex as the leader.
