Title: Avamere Family of Companies Core Values
Time: 4 min 20 sec
Description:
Mission Statement: To enhance the life of every person we serve. Core Values: Integrity above all else Passion for the quality of people’s lives Quality that is obvious Innovation, not emulation A culture of trust and respect Reaching to learn, grow and embrace change Teamwork, camaraderie and fun!
Transcript:
What is the best path forward? What is our mission? For the Avamere Family of Companies, our mission is to enhance the life of every person we serve. Our guiding principle is defined by our core values. Understanding what these are is critical since they form the foundation of every decision we make. And it's from this foundation that we have built a business designed to provide the best in comfort and care. Our story began back in 1995. Our founders purchased and restructured a nursing home in Hillsboro, Oregon. This care center would eventually become one of the region's leading providers of post-acute care. By insisting on integrity above all else, our founders redefined nursing homes by placing the resident at the center by emphasizing quality patient outcomes. With a passion to improve the quality of people's lives, Avamere began to expand our unique blend of patient-centered healthcare services. Several premier independent living communities for retired seniors were built, providing access to comfortable, quality housing with a variety of amenities. And for those needing an extra helping hand in their daily lives, special assisted living centers were established. But our company would be short-lived without an obvious level of quality. We strive to exceed expectations. Our focus on providing the best has allowed us to establish many independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and transitional care centers across multiple states. Adding to a commitment to quality is the relentless pursuit of innovation, charting a new course. For example, when Infinity Rehab was founded in 1999, our therapists began providing in-house rehabilitation services that are typically contracted to outside vendors. This innovation means greater quality oversight and greater patient satisfaction, proven by positive customer and employee feedback from operations throughout the Pacific Northwest and Midwest. It's also important to remember that services such as ours require a deep understanding of what are sometimes very private matters. That requires earning the trust and respect of everyone involved. Through that trust people can rely on us in their time of need, and it has allowed the advent of additional services such as Signature Hospice, Home Health, and Home Care. These services are designed to give those we care for more options and the ability to recover from illness or injury in the comfort of their own home. Healthcare in America is ever-changing, and as a leader, Avamere strives to learn, grow, and embrace change. Through Signature CareConnect, we redesigned how our individual services interact with each other to create a comprehensive, holistic approach to patient care. This new care model aims to reduce unnecessary rehospitalizations and reinforce Avamere's commitment to the lives of those we serve. One thing is certain. We are in this together, so building camaraderie and finding ways to work together, to enjoy our time together, is vitally important to sustaining our energy. Serious work balanced by having fun together creates a dynamic that makes every day more enjoyable. Our core values define us as a company. They are practices we use in everything we do. By adhering to these values, we will continue to build on our strong foundation of providing quality care. And through it all, the mission of the Avamere Family of Companies is to enhance the life of every person we serve. Every employee, every patient, every resident, every community we serve. This is the Avamere Family of Companies.
