It is with great pleasure that we highlight The Cottages Senior Living & Memory Care as one of Dementia Care Solutions' STAR ?? long term care communities. For nearly two years, the Cottages in Marinette, Oconto Falls, and Shawano have dedicated their time and attention to advancing the care provided for the residents in these communities. They have shown their commitment towards changing the culture of dementia care by offering ongoing training, skill building workshops and on-the-floor coaching for all staff. By offering incentives and recognizing hard work, The Cottages have motivated their team to recognize the importance of ongoing training and to continue their expanding knowledge and skill. Their efforts have paid off. Being in the business of long term care means your product is CARE. Through their leadership and dedication they have ensured that staff are provided with the training to hone the skills needed to provide the BEST care. How do they feel about being offered these advanced skill building opportunities? Let's hear from them...
