FACILITY’S  DIRECT-CARE  STAFF

BSH has one of the lowest rates of staff turn-over. As our direct care-givers are well trained by our Administrator for a long time, they communicate with and assist the Administrator effectively about the well-being of the residents at all time.  On the other hand, since the residents do not see different faces every often, they are less confused and feel more secure. In addition, we have a 1/3 ratio of worker/residents which again generates more security among our residents.

Our Mission is to provide a quality life correlated with a healthy body for our residents in a comfortable, safe, and joyful environment, while maintaining their dignity and their values. We are committed to excellence and under no circumstances we may fall short of providing full and flawless care to our residents.
