Making the Decision
The decision to place a loved one in a long term nursing care facility is not an easy one. Acknowledging that someone you love and cherish needs constant nursing care that neither you nor another family member can provide is the first step in the decision making process for the future of your loved one.
Typical reactions of family members may include doubt, guilt, fear and frustration. The realization that some one who cared and nurtured us now needs care is often overwhelming, unpleasant and stressful. The professional caring staff at Whispering Pines fully understands your anxieties and would like to help ease your burden by making this task as easy as possible.
In view of the fact that the choosing of the proper long term nursing care and rehabilitation facility becomes a crucial decision. The staff of Whispering Pines is entrusted to administering quality care for each facility resident. Whispering Pines provides a safe secure atmosphere with 24-hour nursing care and scheduled daily activities to promote the physical and mental well being of residents.
Residents of Whispering Pines will not be denied appropriate care upon the premise of race, religion, sex, color, national origin, age, handicap, marital status or method of payment.
