Health & Wellness Navigator
We also have an effective program in place to help maintain a healthy lifestyle and navigate any medical challenges that may lie ahead:
How it works
With health and wellness navigation, our trained wellness navigator partners with residents to efficiently, professionally and reliably anticipate needs and address them. From day-to-day fitness and life-enriching activities to preparation and follow-up for outpatient and hospital care, assistance is always nearby.
Health & Wellness Navigation Program™ Awards
We are especially proud to announce Karen Lerner, the Health and Wellness Navigator at Moldaw has been awarded the Gold Medal in her field as part of the Health & Wellness Navigation Program™ Awards!
This prestigious honor reflects her exceptional expertise, unwavering dedication, and commitment to improving the lives of those we serve. Her leadership continues to inspire us all and set the standard for excellence in wellness navigation.
Always There in Times of Need
Our navigator coordinates with resources within campus, and with outside resources as needed, ensuring peace of mind and confidence about the future. For example, after surgery, a navigator will coordinate post-acute care or in-residence wellness. The navigator will evaluate residents’ needs and assist residents in navigating the available resources that create the bridge between appropriate levels of care through the continuum of care. Health and Wellness Navigation takes the burden off families, knowing the program is there to assist residents whenever care is needed.
