Senior Wellness Program
New Vision has implemented a Senior Wellness Program. This program has provided multi- disciplinary care at the primary health care level for patients with mild cognitive impairment within our senior population. The goal is to maintain and improve quality of life for patients and caregivers. In conjunction with Senior Wellness Program, New Vision is currently working on a Seniors Fall Prevention Program. In this project we have developed a proactive screening tool to target our at risk seniors.
Within the domain of our Seniors Wellness Program each patient has in-depth Cognitive Screening through accredited tools by a Nurse Practitioner. During the same appointment a Registered Practical Nurse meets with the patient’s caregiver for further screening. Collaboration with the lead physician is carried out and results in a family meeting at the end of the 2.5-hour evaluation.
The Senior Fall Prevention Program requires one hour of clinic time for a patient’s initial appointment, with a half-hour follow-up appointment six months later. Within that six month period each patient will be called monthly to monitor their progress and maintain care.
