skilled nursing

It’s not always possible to return straight home following a hospital stay. That’s why we’re here to offer you a home away from home, as well as additional care you need in the meantime. We offer skilled nursing care in an inpatient setting with the goal of helping your return home safely. The care you receive, including your treatment and length of stay, is tailored to meet your individual needs and varies based on your illness, injury or medical condition.

Cardiac Care

If you’ve experienced a heart attack, heart failure, surgery or other cardiac event, clinicians are here to help you on your road to recovery. The specialized care provided includes nutrition counseling, exercise, and physical activity, as well as weight and blood pressure management, and more.

Respiratory Care

When respiratory disease, surgery, or other illness makes it hard to breathe, staff is standing by to provide skilled respiratory services and pulmonary therapy. Trained clinicians, who specialize in caring for residents with both acute and chronic lung disease, are on staff to help them breathe easier and enjoy a better quality of life.

Wound Care

Whether you suffer from an ulcer, bed sore, or surgical wound, wound care specialists offer comprehensive wound management including assessment, dressing and caring for non-healing or open to fit your unique needs.

IV Therapy

When your recovery requires IV therapy, the caring and knowledgeable nursing professionals are equipped to handle your needs and provide compassionate care. With end-to-end capabilities to help manage and deliver your intravenous therapy needs, we work to monitor your fluid balance and drug effectiveness and maximize your comfort and recovery.

Bariatric Care

With accommodations designed to meet the unique needs of bariatric patients, the interdisciplinary team is here to offer you the nutritional counseling and management you need post-surgery, as well as specialized exercise and psychosocial support to enhance your recovery.

Surgical Recovery

While you most likely would like to get home as quickly as possible following a surgery, the care that you receive following that surgery can make a significant difference in both your short and long-term recovery. Returning straight home can leave you feeling pushed to resume your household duties or struggling to manage your medications and therapy recommendations. Professional, around-the-clock care, seven days a week care professionals can make the difference you need in your recovery. We’re here so that you can rest, receive comprehensive care and therapies, assistance with day-to-day tasks and the access to therapies to help you achieve maximum independence.

Your ability to live the life you want and maintain your independence is dependent on numerous issues, from whether or not you’re able to feed and dress yourself, to your safety walking, and how you can communicate.

Your physical wellbeing impacts your emotional outlook and your quality of life. A team of highly-trained physical therapists creates an individualized plan to help you reach realistic goals, including activities of daily living, such as walking, sitting, climbing stairs and more to enhance your recovery.

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Whether you suffer from a physical, sensory, or cognitive condition, occupational therapists are here to help you reach your independence and regain the ability to participate in the activities that are important in your life. Your therapist will formulate a care plan, reassess your progress, and adjust as needed focusing on activities of daily living such as dressing, grooming, toileting, showering, and more.

Speech Therapy

After suffering a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or other condition, you may need help regaining your ability to communicate. The in-house speech therapists focus on speech, voice, language, and cognition exercises, as well as muscle tone and swallowing issues to create a step-by-step plan for your recovery.
