10.The aims and objectives relating to Resident's needs will always

The
availability of professionally trained nurses to counsel, advise,
and listen to the Resident's needs is our primary aim. This will
enable all staff to communicate with the Resident and discuss their
needs and for their needs to be met.
Families
have to be aware of the diagnosis and prognosis, along with the
Resident. The knowledge and skills of the trained staff will assist
in the Resident's further understanding of their condition and outcome.

well as trained to meet the standards that are set. The trained
professional Nurses are continually updating in new methods in general
and psychiatric fields of care.
