Department
of Social Services
The Department of Social Services consists of the Director, two full-time social workers, and a full-time discharge planner. The Social Service staff provides; psycho-social assessment, behavior management, assistance with end-of-life decision making, family intervention, individual/group counseling and support, entitlement assistance (social security, Medicaid, etc.), financial assistance, assistance with obtaining clothing, future planning, discharge planning, and any other non-medical needs. The primary goal of the social service team is to advocate for the residents and their rights. The social workers serve as mediators between the residents and staff, their families, government agencies and other service providers. Social workers speak for residents who cannot or will not speak for themselves. We are proud to provide these services to the residents of Broadway House and seek to contribute to an atmosphere that promotes personal dignity and growth.
