OUR MISSION is to bring about the highest possible quality of life, comfort, and functionality to geriatric residents in long-term care. Psychologists, supervising mental health professionals, offer assessment, personal attention, and treatment for residents with depression, isolation, anxiety and behavioral disturbances

The Human Element in Long Term CareŽ
Our Network employs a program approach to delivering complete and effective quality of life mental health services for residents of partial and long term care facilities.

We offer a readily available resource for residents, families and staff. Our assessments provide information to family and staff about resident strengths and weaknesses and our intervention aids the facility in providing quality care. Our services and program are designed to help create a happier environment and improve staff morale.
