Checklist
Making the Decision
Carington Health Systems understands that the attention
and care of your loved one is a primary concern for you.
We know this is an emotional and difficult time, whether
it has been dictated by accident, sudden illness or advancing
age. Your decision is very important when selecting a
nursing facility. We believe that by combining the support
of family, friends and the resident, it can also be a
healthy and dignified choice.
Our admissions representatives have the expertise that
families and health care professionals need to make an
informed decision about placing a family member or patient
in need of care. We are happy to answer any questions
and discuss our admissions procedure while you actually
see the lifestyle our residents enjoy. We’ll help
with any financial questions you may have, as well as
explain the Medicare and Medicaid process. For insurance
cases, our corporate case manager serves as a single contact
for insurance companies.
Health care professionals will appreciate the placement
service available through Carington. Our admissions representatives
can facilitate a placement need anywhere in Ohio.
Don’t worry if your loved one is discharged from
the hospital in the evening or needs an emergency admission.
Carington facilities accept admissions around the clock,
every day of the year. Our admissions staff will handle
the details for you and can assist with transportation
needs if necessary. It is our goal to make your loved
one’s transition a smooth one, whether long- or
short-term care is needed.
