necessary for the buildings to meet to
serve the best for the senior care as:

light hall way, day light private bathroom with windows, with roll in walking showers, private patio at ground level, walk in closets and so on...,

The care that we provide to our residents is not limited to
the traditional assisted care done by the task of daily living.

have developed our own style of care based on preventive car.

people, John Wilson has developed the skill of recognizing certain
illnesses from the earliest stages.

created and designed by John Wilson and used for the first time in RCFE
industry.

Invention)
The Licensing
Department requires that the hot water
to be not less than 105 degree F (41 degree C) and not more than 120 degree F
(49 degree C)."
This requirement is impossible to be accomplished especially
in bigger facilities.
This new Water Temperature Control Device (WTCD)
will make that all the residents hot water faucets, to have a constant temperature
suggested to: 115 degree F. (45
degree C), regardless of the hot water
heater tank temperature setting and

tank, regardless of flow, and water pressure and also regardless of how many facets
outlets are in used, or dish waters or laundry washers
