Understanding Core Practice - DAY IN THE LIFE

As a recognized national leader in the continuum of care for Veterans, MVH emphasizes caring for our veterans in communities where the rhythms of the day are determined by the individual resident’s needs and desires and not by staff routine. MVH strives to create the ideal living environment that celebrates the spirit, the accomplishments, and the value of the individual person.

AN EXAMPLE OF A TYPICAL DAY AT MVH AUGUSTA SCARBOROUGH CAMPUS:

• Each household will develop its own routine based on the individual needs of the residents

• Residents will awaken and sleep at will and coffee will be available 24/7 and in room if appropriate.

• Residents will dress, groom and receive assistance with ADL’s at a time of their choosing and in accordance with their individual plan of care.
