Burleson Plan of Care
Our client’s plan of care is unique to each individuals needs. Our registered nurse will visit with each client to review their past medical history, medications, level of activity, and current needs. From this assessment a plan of care will be developed to enhance or maintain the client’s lifestyle. Our goals are to improve or maintain physical functioning, social interactions, and overall mental and physical health.
