EmpowerMe Wellness
The TOUCH Program | EmpowerMe Wellness.
EmpowerMe Wellness TOUCH is an on-site therapy program designed to help promote independence for residents by offering individualized care. We facilitate this individualized care through on-site concierge-styled rehabilitation therapy services, education, fitness and wellness, TOUCH Specialized Programs, and care coordination.
What's unique about this partnership with Renaissance Villages is the program's ability to provide a full scope of therapy services, which also provides a more personal interaction between the residents and therapist. As such it enables residents to receive the therapy services they need without having to leave the community. This resource is also available to seniors in the surrounding area. Furthermore, it offers positive outcomes of enhancing residents' quality of life, greater satisfaction, quick access to care, personalized programs, and optimal level of function.
