Bel Aire in American Fork Offers Seniors A Place To Call Home

Assisted Living has become a natural transition for seniors and Bel Aire Senior Living in American Fork, Utah has been defining excellence for more than 13 years.

As you enter the newly remodeled facility you will ordinarily be greeted by three beautiful women, all residents, enjoying themselves in the gathering area.  They love to have people stop by and it is evident on their faces.  Rooms are sized perfectly for your loved on to bring their own furniture and set up a "studio" apartment.

Kathleen Zonts is the dietary manager and her meals are amazing!  Everything from traditional thanksgiving dinners to chicken cordon bleu, mashed potatoes and gravy, everything the seniors love.  All meals are prepared in house and with lots of love and attention.

Their caring staff have been there for many years and provide some of the best individualized care I have seen.  Cala, the front desk, will show you around and is extremely knowledgeable about the qualification process. Jennifer is the Care Coordinator, Sherry managers and trains the aides and Marcela plans wonderful, stimulating activities for the residents. The entire staff will make your loved one feel at home, enjoy socially stimulating activities and make new friends.

Namaste Care in Hospice Provides Added Comfort

Namaste   Honoring the Spirit  Touching the Heart

For those who have participated in Yoga, Namaste (pronounced Nah MesTay) is the action of placing both hands together, fingers pointing upward, in front of your chest and accompanying it with a slight bow to another person.  This is a salutation or greeting honoring the person  you are with.  In Hospice Care, Namaste is a unique way of caring for the patient that honors them, their life and their wishes.

Freedom Home Health and Hospice offers Namaste Care in our Hospice program to meet the needs and wishes of those who prefer a more holistic approach to end of life care and comfort.

Namaste Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team of compassionate and knowledgeable health care professionals as well as families and friends.  A holistic approach to care assures that the burdens and benefits of each medical intervention or nursing treatment are weighed so that they support quality of life.  Comfort and Pleasure are goals of Namaste Care.  Every effort is made so that the dying process is a pain-free, easy passing surrounded by people who care.

If you, or a loved one, is facing a terminal illness and are not seeking curative treatment, you may qualify for Hospice Care.  Please call our office today at 801-225-3377 and our staff will help answer any questions you may have concerning care.
