A key to the success of the Special Care Center is its staff. “We consistently make every possible effort to cater to the needs of our residents and their families,” stated, Octavio C. Marin, Vice President, Long Term/Support & Ambulatory Care Services.
“Each floor of the Special Care Center is assigned its own physician, thereby providing additional opportunities to fully understand a resident’s medical history,” added Dr. Robert D. Walsh, Medical Director, Special Care Center.
The strong ties between the Special Care Center and the hospital create a continuum of care, with each resident’s personal physician able to supervise their care through various levels of illness. A staff of registered and licensed practical nurses, patient care technicians, and certified nursing
assistants, under the direction of Marie Houanche, RN, also provide quality care to patients on a daily basis.
