Murray, UT - Bayada Nurses is pleased to announce that its Salt
Lake City office is now certified by Medicare and Medicaid. This means
the office can provide skilled visits, participate in state waiver programs,
and work with Salt Lake County Aging Services. The state-sponsored waiver
programs include the Technology Dependent waiver, the Brain Injury waiver,
the Disabilities and Mental Retardation waiver, and the Personal Care
waiver.
Bayada's Salt Lake City office opened in December 1999 and has been
providing extended hour home care services for private pay clients.
Serving the entire Wasatch Front, the office accepts both adult and
pediatric cases and offers a variety of home care services, including
skilled nursing, personal care, and rehabilitation. Services are offered
24 hours a day, 7 days a week on any schedule. The office is accredited
by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations
(JCAHO) and also has a CLIA certificate, which allows employees to perform
blood draws for clients.
"We are looking forward to expanding our service base to include Medicare
and Medicaid clients," says Debby Moore, Director. "We are thrilled
that more Wasatch Front residents will discover why Bayada employees
are called Heroes on the Home Front."
The office employs a number of experienced home health care professionals,
including Registered Nurses (RNs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs),
therapists, home health aides, homemakers, companions, and live-ins.
All staff are fully bonded and insured, and all applicants must undergo
a criminal background check as well as reference checks. "We have very
stringent hiring standards so our clients can feel completely comfortable
with our employees coming into their homes," says Moore. The office
also employs a number of Spanish-speaking aides and office personnel.
In addition, Moore and the office's Nursing Supervisor have 50+ years
of combined home care experience.
Founded in 1975 by J. Mark Baiada, Bayada Nurses is an independently
owned home health care agency that employs more than 5,000 RNs, LPNs,
home health aides, and therapists working from more than 70 offices
in 13 states.
