Social Services
Upon admission each Resident or responsible person will be given a questionnaire relating to the life experiences of the Resident. Information concerning marital status, number of children, occupation, hobbies, interests, etc. will be sought. Please return the questionnaire to the Social Services Designee as soon as possible.

The social service Designee works under the direction of the Director Of Nursing Services in conjunction with support from a Social Work Consultant with a Masters Degree in the field. Should you have any questions regarding Social Services, please contact the Social Service Designee, the Director of Nursing Services, or the Social Work Consultant.
