Transitioning Program
Moving into a new environment can be a significant life change, and at Desert Cottages, we understand the importance of making this transition as smooth and comfortable as possible. Our Transition Program is designed to support new residents during their adjustment period, ensuring they feel welcomed, valued, and at home from the moment they arrive.
Upon joining our community, each new resident is assigned a dedicated staff member who works closely with them to understand their individual preferences, habits, and needs. This personalized approach allows us to provide tailored support and assistance, ensuring that the transition process is as seamless as possible.
We are proud to offer our services to participants of the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) program.
The Desert Cottages Transition Program Offerings
At Desert Cottages, we believe that the transition to a new living environment should be met with warmth, understanding, and personalized support. Our Transition Program is designed to ease the adjustment process and help new residents feel right at home from the very beginning.
One-on-One Caregiving
For the first three nights, new residents receive personalized caregiving support to assist with adjustment and acclimation. Our compassionate staff members are available to address any concerns and provide reassurance during this important transition period.
Welcome Dinner and Meet-n-Greet
To help new residents feel welcomed and connected, we host a special welcome dinner and "meet-n-greet" event on the day of arrival. This provides an opportunity for residents to socialize, meet fellow residents and staff members, and begin building meaningful connections within the community.
Daily Walk-Throughs
Our staff conducts daily walk-throughs with newly arrived residents to familiarize them with our facility offerings and amenities. Whether it's exploring communal areas, learning about recreational activities, or getting acquainted with dining options, we ensure that residents feel comfortable navigating their new surroundings.
Personalized Activity Planning
We incorporate pet therapy and take the time to discover each individual's unique interests, hobbies, and preferences. This information is incorporated into our activities program, ensuring that residents have opportunities to engage in meaningful and enjoyable activities that align with their interests.
We are here to help.
