Although Silver Fox is not a formal medical practice, our staff consists of Certified Nursing Assistants, Home Health Aides, and a Registered Nurse, and is able to provide assistance with Activities of Daily Living such as toileting and transferring. While the Silver Fox does not diagnose, provide medical examinations or prescribe treatment to members, our staff work with members to care for their ongoing medical needs. While our staff can certainly offer advice from an experienced lens and suggest members seek further medical attention regarding certain health concerns, the Silver Fox should not be misconstrued to be a formal medical operation.
