Despite being limited in mobility and unable to visit a regular dentist office, residents of skilled nursing facilities enjoy a comprehensive level of care with the mobile dental services provided by Golden Age Dental Care. We offer our clients diagnostic, preventative, restorative, cleanings, complete denture care, numerous surgical procedures, and even emergency dental care. This is all performed on the patient’s terms, right at their bedside, with care for their mental and emotional wellbeing.
How Do Facilities Keep Track of Who You See And The Work You Do?
We take great pains in ensuring that communication between our doctors and the facilities we serve is second to none. To ensure transparency, we always check in with the facility that we serve, and discuss who we are seeing, as needed. After our work is finished, we submit a detailed summary of everything that has gone on, including the patients we saw, work attempted, and work completed. Facilities love Golden Age because our paperwork and reporting is always so spotless. We keep track of individual patients’ schedules on our end, so that facilities are always in compliance, and that patients’ mouths always remain healthy!
Can You Help Us Manage Our Resident’s Dental Care?
We regularly audit a facility’s records to make sure that no resident is overlooked, and that each resident is getting the care and attention needed to stay healthy (especially helpful come survey time). Further, we’re incredibly easy to get a hold of, and consult with family members directly about care. We handle insurance matters, and pride ourselves in our clear, informative reporting and supportive services. Finally, we provide regular in-service learning opportunities for the facilities we work with. It’s our way of promoting a culture of care that is proactive, which pays off in dividends for our patients, and also helps us to foster greater relationships with the many caregivers we work with.
How Frequently Can You Visit Our Facility?
Completely as needed! No more waiting for the scheduled dentist day to have a patient seen. Our guiding principle is that nobody should go without regular care, follow-ups, and emergency care, when needed. When a patient is experiencing pain, we accommodate them, often making a visit within 24 hours, or even same-day. Other providers take days, even weeks, to visit a waiting patient.
Can You Ensure Quality Dentures For Our Residents?
Absolutely! With our decades of experience, Golden Age Dental Care accurately designs and develops dentures of the highest quality. Plus, with our own in-house lab, we not only ensure the highest quality control, but also our speed, often delivering dentures within 10 days of order, if not sooner!
