Description
About Platinum Care
I developed my love for the elderly as a very small child, I accompanied my mother on all her patient home visits and was intrigued with the elderly and fell in love with providing care and meeting their needs. I worked as a caregiver at the early age of sixteen for twelve years, this is when I discovered my true passion and realized this is what I was meant to do! My love for the elderly and caring for others only intensified, giving me a great deal of satisfaction. I then attended nursing school and graduated with honors, obtaining my nursing license in January 2001. I have an innate sense of compassion, advocacy, honesty, loyalty, and most importantly, a genuine sense of caring for everyone under my care. All the while, sensitivity and dedication to the nursing field drives my decision making. I have boundless amounts of energy and possess an amazing ability to make all my patients feel nurtured while maintaining their dignity and utmost respect.
We have 1 private room and 1 shared room available, call us to schedule a visit and viewing.
More Information About Platinum Care 365
Platinum Care 365 is a
Nursing Home located in Oak Harbor, WA. In Washington State, Nursing Homes – also known as Skilled Nursing Facilities are facilities that provide 24-hour supervised care by a Registered Nurse (RN), a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or a combination of the three. WA Nursing Homes are reserved for individuals who require specialized care that can only be administered or supervised by a skilled nurse. Many facilities offer on-site rehabilitation in fully equipped gyms with trained physical therapists. Nursing homes have the highest number of staff per resident among the different types of assisted living, which allows them to provide very personal daily care and attention to each of their residents. They typically offer both in-room and communal dining options, as well as daily social, physical and mental activities. Unlike
Assisted Living Facilities or
Adult Family Homes, residents typically need a physician’s referral to be admitted to a Skilled Nursing Facility. Your doctor may even recommend a local Skilled Nursing Facility, but you ultimately have the choice to decide which facility you prefer.
Platinum Care 365 currently has a room available, and is looking for the right resident to join their home. The available room listed here is
private, meaning you get the entire room to yourself. The bathroom is shared between you and one or more of the residents in the home.
Pets:
Platinum Care 365 does not allow pets. This does not necessarily mean there are no pets in the facility, but that they do not allow residents to bring their own.
Smoking Policy:
Platinum Care 365 does not allow smoking on the premises, but they do allow the use of Vapor/E-cigarettes in designated areas. They have one or more designated areas outside where Vapor/E-cigarette users can vape away from the building and away from
other residents. Vaping indoors or anywhere outside the designated areas is strictly prohibited.
Bilingual Staff:
Platinum Care 365 has bilingual staff and caregivers who speak English
and Phillipines
to help communicate with residents who prefer to speak in their native language.
Short-Term / Respite Care:
Platinum Care 365 offers Short-Term / Respite Care with daily rates for anyone who needs to stay for less than a month. Respite Care services can offer relief for current caregivers, allowing them to take a much-needed break.
Onsite Rehabilitative Services:
This facility offers in-house rehabilitative services. These services may vary from providing assistance with stretching, range-of-motion, or following a prescribed at-home plan, to a full on-site exercise room with professional equipment and physical therapists. If you need onsite rehabilitative services, please make sure to verify what type of rehab services are offered at this location. Additionally, visiting therapists for scheduled physical therapy treatments may be accommodated.
Hospice Care:
They provide personalized and compassionate hospice care services for residents and their families during the end-stages of life. Respect and dignity are top priorities for residents and their families – especially during these times.
Seeking Medicaid Resident
Platinum Care 365 accepts Medicaid, and is seeking a Medicaid resident for this available room. Medicaid recipients typically need to have an assessment from Medicaid which will include the resident’s level of required care, as well as the daily and monthly dollar amount that Medicaid will cover for their care. There may also be certain waivers available for qualifying residents, which may cover additional items that Medicaid itself will not cover. Each state has very different Medicaid rules, coverages and limits, as well as different available waiver programs. If you have not already done so, please contact your local Medicaid office to determine what you need to do in order to get an official assessment, and if you qualify for any additional coverage. Once you have that, you can contact this facility (or any other facility that accepts Medicaid) and they will ask you some questions about the care you require and about your Medicaid assessment. The facility will make the final determination whether to accept a resident or not. Room & Care encourages residents to contact multiple facilities to improve their odds of being accepted faster. Facilities look at factors such as whether the resident will fit in with their other current residents, if the resident requires a similar level of care as the other residents in the facility, current number of available caregivers or a lack thereof - among other factors.
