Cybersecurity Event Update

Cybersecurity Event Update

Ascension previously reported that it experienced a ransomware attack that has caused disruptions to patient care in its network. Our priority remains on providing safe patient care. Ascension, with the support of leading cybersecurity experts, worked around the clock over the weekend to respond to the ransomware incident affecting our systems. We are focused on restoring systems safely. We are making progress, however, it will take time to return to normal operations. As systems and services come back online, we will share those updates so that our patients and communities can plan accordingly. We have established a dedicated website to share any updates we have across our system.

    Waco, Texas (February 8,2023) Ascension Living Providence Village, located at 300 West Highway 6 in Waco, celebrated the opening of its new assisted living memory support cottages during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Jan. 31. Due to an ice event that day, another open house will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 16.

    “More people than ever before are experiencing memory loss,” said Amanda Sonnier, Executive Director, Ascension Living Providence Village. “And for many families that means another family member, or several, are caring for their loved ones. We are committed to providing compassionate, personalized memory support services that meet the needs of seniors in the Waco area.”

    The newly renovated memory support wing is designed around what is familiar and comforting to residents with dementia – all in a cottage-like setting that feels like home. From color choices to noise control and lighting, to an open-air kitchen and private room layouts, everything was taken into consideration to honor each resident’s unique needs. The new wing offers 40 apartments.

    The specially designed program and renovated space will support the entire family, not just the resident. Before a resident is admitted, the team gets to know the family’s loved ones so the team can develop tailored care and support. Support plans will help residents feel in control of their days, choosing which services they want and when they wish them to be delivered.

    The wing’s Dignified Dining program will help ensure that each resident’s dining experience meets their unique needs. Residents also benefit from specialized technology that allows them to get in touch with loved ones via one-touch video calls, connect with residents who share similar interests, and build a digital personal profile of their favorite content from a library of thousands of educational resources, videos, games and more.

    All associates at Ascension Living Providence Village who engage with memory loss residents and their families participate in advanced training. The hands-on training helps the team deliver the right care and support for residents to meet their unique physical, emotional, social and sensory needs. It also provides associates a unique “inside-out” look at what it’s like to live with dementia. This allows the team to fully understand the impacts of the disease, resulting limitations, and the reason behind residents’ changes in behavior.

    “We invested in this construction project to meet the evolving needs of seniors – specifically our residents, " said Lisa Musgrave, RN, BSN, MHA, Senior Vice President of Post-Acute and At-Home Services, Ascension. ”It is imperative that we help our residents receive care they need, when they need it, in the most appropriate setting with specially trained staff. It is a pleasure to say that Ascension Living Providence Village now offers assisted living, independent living, long-term skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation and memory support. Because of this transformational construction project, Ascension now offers the complete continuum of care – from hospital services to post-acute care to senior living and outpatient services – on this campus.”
