Our Commitment to Personalized Care

At DeerView Assisted Living, personalized care is at the heart of everything we do. Here’s how we ensure each resident receives the care they deserve:

  • Initial Assessment
    We conduct a detailed initial assessment of each resident’s medical history, physical and mental health, and personal preferences. This helps us develop a personalized care plan tailored to their specific needs.

  • Regular Evaluations
    Our team regularly reviews and updates each resident’s care plan based on changes in their health and preferences, ensuring that our care adapts to their evolving needs.

  • Open Communication
    We maintain open communication with residents and their families to fully understand their needs and preferences. This enables us to tailor our approach to meet their unique requirements.

  • Staff Training
    Our staff is trained to provide care based on individual needs. We ensure they have the necessary skills and knowledge to deliver personalized and effective care.

  • Resident Involvement
    We involve residents in decision-making regarding their care as much as possible, ensuring their preferences are considered and they are active participants in their care process.

Testimonies

Gloria Padilla

The Deer View Assisted Living is the home care facility for your love ones. The newly renovated home is comfortable, spacious and inviting. As soon as you step inside the door you are greeted by friendly health care givers; you immediately notice the brightness and cleanliness of the facility.
The care givers are very professional, attentive and courteous to the residents as well as to guests. They exhibit a deep concern for the welfare and comfort of their residents. The residents are treated with care, respect and compassion. My brother-in-law has been a resident since the facility opened its doors in April 2023. He is treated with kindness, patience and understanding. They devote a lot of personal time and care to him. If you are searching for an assisted living home care facility, I invite you to visit Deer View Assisted Living. It is a “home away from home”.

I visited my cousin, who resides at DeeView Assisted Living, on Sunday. I was very impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The facility is clean and handicap friendly. The residents have areas to spend time in inside and outside. The residents I spoke with seemed very content. My cousin has a very nice roommate and they get along well. She is very happy there for which I am grateful.

I want to thank Chris, Nick, Eddie and the rest of the staff at Deerview Assisted Living for the support they provided to my father while he was there. He went to this location in April of this year up thru his passing in August. I had searched multiple other locations and came across them by chance. They are a very caring group of healthcare workers that I can now call friends. I felt very secure in knowing my father was being handled with the utmost care and dignity that he deserved. I had never heard of the concept of a Personal Care Home like this, but because they have a smaller group of residents the care and attention they give is exactly the type of care I wish I was able to provide to my father at home. If I was unable to visit, I got daily updates on his progress from the staff. Thank you again Deerview for making my fathers life easier up thru the end. Your new lifelong friend, DM
