Implement Restorative Nursing Programs with Confidence

The risk for ADL decline in long-term care residents is a serious issue that often leads to falls, pressure ulcers, weight loss, depression, and other negative outcomes.

However, many facilities struggle to implement and manage any consistent restorative program.
