Give the people what they want.

The very idea of culture change is to give the people what they want. When you look at it this way everything becomes simple. When it comes to eating, do you want a choice of foods? Would you like to eat at a time that is most suitable to you? The answer is an obvious yes. Before the advent of culture change for nursing homes, chances are your choice of foods were limited, and the time when you ate was most likely dictated by some archaic rule that said there must be 14 hours between your last substantial meal, (supper) and your next substantial meal (breakfast). What that more than likely meant was that at about 7am every morning your nursing assistant came into your room, turned on your lights and said, get up breakfast is ready. Now I don't know about you but I don't feel like being forced to eat the very minute that I get up. Well that's the way it was not too long ago in this industry,

Here at Orchard View Manor a more relaxed person centered atmosphere exists. You have a choice every morning to either eat in your room (room service) or perhaps dine in one of our two dining rooms where our chefs will craft breakfast for you. Each dining room features a full kitchen area complete with a grill and panini maker, commercial style waffle iron, and full convection oven where we prepare and bake a variety of muffins for your pleasure. We offer orange, cranberry, or apple juice, fresh brewed coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. You can select our fresh baked muffins, or danish. We will prepare omelets of your choice to order, french toast, waffles, or pancakes. You can compliment your meal with home fried potatoes, crisp bacon, grilled ham, or sausage.

This is giving the people what they want at its finest. Service such as this is now our way of life. Our residents enjoy the atmosphere, the choices offered, and the outstanding service that we provide. So if food is an important aspect in your decision for placement of a loved one for nursing home care, think first about culture change and Orchard View Manor Nursing and rehabilitative Care. 135 Tripps Lane East Providence RI (401-438-2250).
