FAIRMONT OF WESTLAKE Good Food for Great People

Presented by Fairmont of Westlake

Aprimary reason people move into an assisted living community is to get tasty and nutritious meals. No part of a community is judged more critically, or discussed more often, than the dietary department. Food that meets each resident’s dietary needs and palate is important. Meet Bill Malone, Senior Food Service Director at Fairmont of Westlake.

Being a Food Service Director for Fairmont is more than a job for Malone; it’s also a reflection of his passion to serve older adults and his commitment to meeting their dietary needs.

“I have been in the food service industry for over 30 years, and for over 15 years, I have been at this community,” Malone says. “The residents are like family to our dietary team and we always put them first to ensure an excellent overall dining experience. With years of experience providing nutritional meals for older adults, we can accommodate standard diets, restricted diets, therapeutic diets and diets for those with unique dietary preferences.”

Malone continues, “One of the exciting changes with Fairmont is that, once a month, we offer “Eloquent Dining,” which features different place settings and special meal options for our residents. My goal is to exceed their expectations by involving them in our monthly Food Committee meetings so their voices are heard and we can continue to make their dining experience great.

“I believe the Fairmont dietary team is among the best in the industry and Fairmont is blessed to have such wonderful and amazing individuals. My role as Food Service Director is, by far, the most rewarding job I have had and just knowing that I am going to make a difference in our residents’ dining experience brightens my day.”

Aging at home has become more complex with economic and logistical barriers such as caregiver staffing shortages, safety concerns and loneliness. OneKey Virtual Care, a family-owned business founded in Ohio, is an affordable, accessible and reliable solution to maintaining safety and independence.

Drawing on 40 years of expertise in home care, the OneKey Virtual Care team recently developed a data-driven, remote healthcare insights platform with crisis response using real-time video monitoring.

We do this all at an extremely affordable rate of $8 an hour and with flexible scheduling. OneKey can also be paired with handson home care or assisted living services.

We install motionsensored cameras through a cellular connection (no Wi-Fi needed) that prompts a camera recording monitored by live, remote virtual caregivers. When an event occurs, the client’s customized care plan is enacted, which may ask that OneKey contact a family member or neighbor, have EMS sent out, or have a caregiver dispatched.

We use best practices and protocols to keep patient information secure and do not store video data. Each week, we share a detailed, personalized report with the daily habits (such as sleeping, eating and ambulating) that can be shared with clinical providers to identify possible infections, medication adjustment needs and health changes. Through our reports, we have been able to identify urinary tract infections before families or doctors.

Customer Richard Klaben says, “OneKey Virtual Care has allowed our mother to live independently with dignity while giving us peace of mind to know that she is being looked after, and if anything happens, we will know right away. The reporting has allowed us to identify and address any challenges our mother faces with medications, illness and sleep. This is the solution we needed.”
