As specialists in senior care, we need to keep updated on the latest trends in health care solutions and find new sources of creative inspiration to serve our clients better. To stay current, we use a variety of online and offline sources to provide the latest in assisted living care to our clients and improve their quality of life while living with us. The tools that we use allow us to deliver exceptional services to all our clients, ensuring they receive the care and consideration that they require.

If you’re looking for the latest trends in senior assisted living solutions, we’re going to share some of the most valuable resources we use to learn more about the developments in our industry. Keep reading to see what they are and how they help us on a daily basis.

Our clients
The most significant resource we have is our clients. We create individualized care plans based on each clients’ history. Their information, be it with regards to their medications, physical activity (i.e., were there ever any injuries?), their familial history, etc., it all plays a big part in how we care for them.

New technology
At Buckingham South, we are always on the cutting edge of new technologies. We encourage all types of therapies to bring us new forms of healing. We have therapists (physical, occupational, and speech therapies) come in and give Continuing Education Courses to all our staff to improve their skills and knowledge. For example, new research has shown that a fall may not cause a hip dislocation, but rather a hip dislocation (caused by age-related entropy) may be the cause of a fall. With updated expertise and knowledge, we can prevent major injuries and difficulties for our clients. 

Department of Health websites for Assisted Living 
We visit different Department of Health websites for Assisted Living regularly to stay current with all the rules and regulations and staff training required to offer optimal care to those in need. The DPH (Department of Public Health) helps us stay in line with all Georgia Assisted Living regulations and trade ideas, while also helping one another.

Scientific journals
We stay up to date with different age-related diseases by subscribing to many scientific journals. We highly recommend journals because, within these, there are many new ideas and philosophies that we can research on our own and implement for improved services.

Current event websites and webinars
We subscribe to many websites that discuss current events, new rules, and regulations and help us integrate them into our daily operations. We also sign up for webinars that offer education to all our staff. This helps us stay compliant and implement beneficial changes.

Our pharmacy
Our pharmacy offers continuing education throughout the year with regards to medication, interactions, contraindications, what to look out for in behavioral changes and side effects, dealing with medication administration, and assistance with medical devices. The information they provide us with is very useful as it allows us to enhance the quality of our solutions and serve our clients better.
