Continuum of Care
As older adults move from one end of the continuum (independence) to the other (dependence on others), our professional care managers identify each individual's changing needs and implements a plan of care that is consistent with the client's needs and goals. As their advocate, our goal is to make sure the appropriate services are in place in order to meet the presenting needs.

Transitional Care Program
As health professionals, we realize that our clients move in and out of areas of service need as they experience changing levels of independence and dependence. An example of this is when a client is discharged from a hospital or skilled nursing facility and may need in-home care services and home delivered meals for a short period of time. We will arrange for the services, personally coach service providers, and be present during this transitional period. Seniors moving into a new environment also benefit from supportive care from PNP's Transitional Care Program, as this can be a frightening and challenging time in one's life.
