Why Our Homes Are Better Than Theirs

Did you know there are no mandated staffing ratios in the assisted living industry? Concerned? You should be.In this episode, we discuss why resident-to-staff ratios are central to providing high-quality care and provide some insights into appropriate and recommended ratios for smaller residential assisted living homes. In many typical big-box assisted living facilities, ratios are around 20-30 residents per caregiver during the day and 40-50 residents per caregiver at night. These poor ratios contribute to bedsores, injuries, and death. The stressful work environment and long hours lead to high staff turnover and inconsistent care for the senior residents. However, in smaller residential assisted living homes, you can rest assured that better ratios are maintained, usually around 4-5 residents per caregiver during the day and 8-10 residents per caregiver at night. Listen for smart tips on marketing your own residential assisted living home. Showcasing significantly faster response times to resident needs versus large corporate competitors will help you stand out. Get ideas for highlighting your dedication to safe ratios and quality care.If you’re looking to place a loved one in a setting focused on personalized care or want to open your own caring residence, this episode is a must-listen. You’ll walk away better informed about the pressing need for regulating staffing ratios and the solutions residential assisted living homes provide. Resources:Mercury Alert - https://www.mercuryalert.ai/CarePredict - https://www.carepredict.com/🎓 Ready to turn your passion into profit?
