Don’t always visit at just one specific time of the day, say just mornings or evenings. No, you want an idea of the quality of the all-around-the-clock care the facility provides. Hence, visit more than once and at different times of the day before registering your loved one.
Here are some of the most critical features to watch out for when on such investigative tours. How well is the facility equipped with safety devices? How furnished is the facility with monitoring systems, window locks, non-slip flooring, and adequate lighting?
Also, watch for the staff quality. How genuinely compassionate and friendly are they?
I admit you may need a bit of emotional intelligence (EQ) to find that out., but not much to analyze the level of attentiveness of the staff. High EQ levels are also not necessary to measure the hygienic conditions of the facility.
