Under a provision of Public Health law, the County Clerk personally unsealed an adoption record from the
1950s, and completed a form from the State Health Departments Adoption Information Registry showing
what information the file contained concerning the birth parents health and family history. Sadly, most such
records from that era focus on the adoptive parents, with only minimal attention to the birth mother and father.

MISSIONSTATEMENT
The Department of Residen al Health Care Facili es provides excellence in long term care services to the people of Albany
County and surrounding areas. The facility will provide a nurturing atmosphere staed by qualified and compassionate
individuals who are able to oer innova ve health care through complex medical services and a
comprehensive approach. The goal is a community integrated health care con nuum in which
APPROPRIATIONHISTORY
every individual is a valued member.
WHOWESERVE
The Nursing Home serves residents of Albany County and the surrounding areas in need of
placement in a skilled nursing facility. Historically, the Nursing Home has established a niche in
the marketplace by serving those pa ents tradi onally defined as hard to place. Hard to
place residents are those not normally considered for nursing home admission in the private
sector and include, but are not limited to, those with mental health diagnoses, those with
behavioral problems, those with advanced demen a, and those with clinically complex
condi ons. While the Facility cannot have an open admission policy and must be
discre onary with those that it agrees to admit, the Nursing Home makes every eort to
accommodate these kinds of applicants (as well as other more tradi onal nursing home
residents) for admission. The Facility does give preference in admissions to Albany County
residents during the placement process.
ABOUTOURDEPARTMENT
The Nursing Home provides skilled nursing services at the highest possible level of quality for
those it is privileged to serve. The Facility is licensed by the New York State Department of
Health and is cer fied for Medicare and Medicaid. The Facility also has a number of provider
contracts with third party insurers including Empire Blue Cross, CDPHP, MVP, and United Health
Care. The Nursing Home also contracts with the Veterans Administra on for the provision of
long term care for veterans who qualify for such services.

Organiza onally, the Nursing Home consists of eight interrelated departments to either provide care and clinical services
to the residents and/or to provide supplementary services and support to those departments who do provide care. Those
eight departments are Nursing, Rehabilita on Services, Food and Nutri on, Social Services, Therapeu c and Leisure Time
Ac vi es, Environmental Services, Administra on, and the Business Oce. Currently there are approximately 325
employees who work at the Nursing Home.
2013ACCOMPLISHMENTSANDCHALLENGES
In December 2012, a er last years narra ve had already been presented, the Nursing Home underwent a
survey by the New York State Department of Health. The results of this survey validated the improvements
made in the facility, both in resident care and in the physical structure of the Nursing Home. This was
reflected by the results shown on the Statement of Deficiencies, where we received zero cita ons related to
resident care, and was the best survey ever received by the Nursing Home.
During 2013, the Nursing Home con nued to refine its clinical programming. One of the most posi ve
advancements has been in the Facilitys Pallia ve Care Program. The program was started in 2010 and has
blossomed over the past 3 years, serving a greater numbers of residents. Headed by the Facilitys Medical
Director and Pallia ve Care RN Team Leader, the program oers comprehensive, specialized care to pa ents
with serious illness while focusing on allevia on of suering and increasing the quality of life. Other
specialized programs that con nue to grow in 2013 include the Renaissance Integrated Structured
Enhancement (RISE) Program, the Wellness Center, the Restora ve Nursing and Dining Programs, and the

2014GOALSANDPERFORMANCETARGETS
As the Facility moves towards the new year it is also on the cusp of a new and exci ng era. The County
Legislature passed a resolu on authorizing the crea on of a Local Development Corpora on (LDC) to provide
an alterna ve to current County control of the facility. Everyone's goal for the ACNH is to ensure that whatever
outcome is ul mately pursued, that the conversion occurs smoothly and in a manner that presents no
interrup on in the high level of service, care and dignity residents and their families have come to expect.
For ease of understanding the impact of any poten al nursing home transi on, the requested column in the
budget reflects a full year of opera ons and the proposed column represents the expecta on that the LDC
will assume opera ons on July 1st, 2014.

Hockey Facility
This project would include the change in the size of the rink at the facility as well as the addition of a warming room that will
provide a comfortable climate controlled atmosphere for visitors. The hockey rink is currently Olympic-size and it is not
conductive to the needs of local hockey teams. By reducing the size of the rink to the NHL size, the hockey facility will entice
local teams to utilize the facility. In addition, the cooling system is obsolete and needs to be upgraded. This project will be started
in 2014.
