Alzheimer's disease causes you or your loved ones to suffer from memory loss, cognitive deficits, and behavior problems. These difficulties affect everyone differently, and that's why the staff at Accura HealthCare develops individualized, person-centered care plans for each of our residents.
If you or your loved one has made the decision to receive comfort care rather than continue treatment or the search for a cure for your condition, then hospice services are the option you've been seeking. The nursing and hospice staff at Accura HealthCare will provide the pain management and care services you need to enjoy your days.
When you or your loved one has reached the point where you can no longer remain at home due to needing 24-hour nursing care and monitoring, Accura HealthCare is here to help you. You or your loved one can stay with us until the end.
Our care is designed to help you or your loved one maintain their current level of functioning as much as possible, for as long as possible. Our care is intended to help manage the illness, injury, and other challenges of aging that impact physical and emotional health over time.
Accura HealthCare is an Iowa-based healthcare company that manages and operates skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and assisted living centers. Accura embraces an upside-down organization philosophy that places the residents, patients, and direct care employees at the very top of the organizational chart.
Also, Accura chooses not to be referenced as a corporate office but rather a Resource Center. The lower an employee is on the chart (thus having more leadership responsibilities), the more responsibility they have to be a resource for those above them.
Accura's upside-down organizational philosophy creates an upside-down triangle that is reflected in the company's logo. Also visible within the triangle of the logo is one person caring for another. This symbol represents the meaning of the company's name. "Accura" is a Latin word meaning "to take care of or give attention to."
As members of the Accura team, we all embrace our mission statement "...to be partners in care and family for life." As we strive to deliver on our mission, we will do this by adhering to our values of trust, integrity, accountability, commitment, and kindness.
Being true to our values is our highest aspiration. We take pride in providing the best quality services in the delivery of care. Quality is our top priority. Every decision made at Accura HealthCare takes into account the impact on resident and patient care and quality.
Our mission at Accura HealthCare is to be partners in care and family for life. Accura HealthCare's nursing and rehabilitation centers provide individualized care for residents and patients to return to higher levels of function. Our intensive medical and rehabilitative services include orthopedic, pulmonary, cardiac, dementia, respite, diabetes, and hospice services for short and long-term care needs.
Also, our assisted living communities help our residents remain independent in private settings while providing housekeeping and dining services, activities, companionship, and a 24-hour emergency response.
The vision for Accura HealthCare is to be a place that provides the support and love of a united family. Our Vision should not be limited to a work shift or work hour. It is a philosophy; a belief that Accura can provide a refuge from the stresses and challenges of life. Accura HealthCare is where personal life and work life blend together to bring value and purpose to one's existence.
