“Nursing & rehabilitation services - 6 facilities: kissito operates six skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities that deliver exceptional services like ventilator dependent care, complex wound care, alzheimer/dementia care, post-acute rehabilitation, assisted living, and chronic disease self-management programs. Two-thirds of the patients kissito cares for are short-term rehabilitation patients with a plan to return to home. Patients are getting older; they're waiting longer to seek help; and diseases continue to evolve. As a forward-looking nursing home operator, we strive to meet the needs of today while evolving with the changes shaping tomorrow. High acuity skilled nursing - respiratory care center of excellence: as more and more seniors age in place, the role of the nursing home is changing. Kissito believes that the role of a nursing home will be to care for those seniors who need extensive high-acuity services both short-term and long-term. In virginia, kissito has transformed two traditional nursing homes into high-acuity respiratory centers of excellence. The centers are designed to care for ventilator and tracheotomy dependent patients, at these facilities we both wean patients off of the ventilator so they may return to their community and we care for those on a ventilator long term and provide a high quality of life while doing so. Kissito's respiratory centers of excellence are in high demand and receives patients from throughout the united states. Model of care cp2 (collaborate patient care pathway): over 22 percent of medicare patients released from the hospital return within 30 days, and the leading cause is their inability to manage their condition. Kissito recognized that patients and their families could be empowered to maintain their health and break the hospitalization cycle. Working with dr. Steven r. Hahn of the albert einstein college of medicine, kissito developed the collaborative patient care pathway or cp2. This evidence-based model of care has already been implemented in multiple provider settings across the country and early results show dramatically reduced readmission rates with patients enjoying longer, healthier, and happier lives. Kissito is committed to making cp2 the standard model of care across multiple provider settings. This entity was sold in early 2017. Home and community based services - pace and mfp: kissito believes some of the elderly population will once again be cared for at home with better outcomes and at lower costs. Federally funded pace (program of all-inclusive care for the elderly) and mfp (money follows the person) are two programs kissito has implemented to keep or bring our elders home to live amongst family and friends. Kissito believes high-quality, home-centered care is the way of the future and we intend to be at the forefront of it. Kissito at home (mfp): research shows there are far too many elders institutionalized in nursing homes, many of whom could live independently in the community with the right home and community based services available to them. Kissito at home is a money follows the person program designed to allow a person living in a nursing home to transition back into the community and have their home and community based services coordinated for them until the transition is complete. Kissito pace: staying independent and remaining at home is important for our community's seniors. However, safety and proper care are serious concerns. Kissito pace understands this and helps seniors to stay healthy and living at home. Seniors in the kissito pace program benefit from a wide range of healthcare services provided in our pace center and at home, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. Kissito pace relieves the burden on family caregivers by providing wheelchair accessible transportation, care coordination, and complete access to healthcare services for their participants. Elder housing: affordable housing for the frail and elderly: kissito”
