For assisted living, memory care and senior communities
A nurse on your calendar, one standing day a month
Debbie sets up in a quiet corner of your building and sees residents one after another, an hour each. Families book online or through your activities desk. Nobody gets loaded into a van.
How a facility day works
Three steps, and the first one is a phone call.
1. Pick a day
You and Debbie agree a standing day, say the second Tuesday. It goes on her route and on your activities calendar, and it stays there month after month.
2. Residents sign up
Families book a time online, or your front desk keeps a simple list. Either way works, and both can happen at once.
3. She comes to them
She brings sterilized instruments and everything else. Each resident needs a chair, a towel and about an hour.
What residents pay
Billed per resident, to the resident or their family. No contract, no minimum, nothing invoiced to the building.
First visit
- $65 flat for every new resident
- A full look at nails, skin and circulation, then the first treatment
Every visit after
- $50 when residents in one building share a day
- $15 less than a private home visit
What your administrator will ask
Licensed nurse
Debbie is a licensed nurse with twenty years of nursing and ten in wound care. She checks feeling, circulation and skin at every visit and refers anything medical back to the resident's doctor or podiatrist.
Sterilized instruments
Every instrument is sterilized between residents. She brings her own; nothing of the building's is used.
Insured
She carries liability insurance and can send a certificate to your administrator on request.
Questions activities directors ask
How many residents can she see in a day?
Six, an hour each, with a short break between. If your building has more, she adds a second day rather than rushing anyone.
Does she take Medicare?
No. Routine foot care is not a Medicare benefit, which is why the price is flat and printed here. Some Medicare Advantage plans reimburse it; she gives every family a receipt.
What if a resident has diabetes or is on a blood thinner?
That is most of who she sees. She works gently, watches the skin closely and will not proceed if something needs a doctor first. More about diabetic feet.
Which towns does she come to?
More than thirty communities from Loveland down to Centennial, each on its own day. If your building is in one of them, there is already a day on her route. See every town.
Set up a facility day
A five-minute call is all it takes. Tell her the building and roughly how many residents, and she'll find the day.
