Skilled Nursing
Whether you are in need of post-acute (short-term) or long-term care, our skilled nursing communities are designed to promote rehabilitation in a high-quality and compassionate environment. As a resident, your needs and preferences shape your experience, from food choices to activities. We are committed to helping you feel at ease, at rest, and at home.
Rehabilitation Therapy
Rehabilitation therapy services aim to restore residents to their highest level of functioning. Physical therapy is designed to relieve pain and enhance health. Occupational therapy strives to equip patients with the necessary skills—and often, customized tools—for proper self-care, such as dressing, personal hygiene, and cooking. Speech and Language Pathologists assist residents in achieving improved quality of life through assessment of language, swallowing, and/or cognitive disorders.
Memory Care
We understand the unique situation of those who suffer from memory loss. Our nurses are trained and experienced to create a comfortable environment that includes simple routines and visual cues as a positive substitute for diminishing mental processes.
Our memory care programs are specifically designed to meet the needs of residents with memory impairments. There is no one-size-fits-all formula when it comes to Dementia and Alzheimer’s care. Needs change at different stages of the disease and each family’s situation is unique. Our team, with the support of our mental health partners, evaluates each individual and develops a tailored care plan specific to their needs.
ALZHEIMER’S CARE
Each of our nurses is trained and experienced to create a comfortable environment that includes simple routines and visual cues as a positive substitute for diminishing mental processes.
DEMENTIA CARE
Dementia is, most often, a gradual deterioration of mental functioning. This deterioration affects concentration, memory, and judgment, and, in turn, affects one’s ability to perform daily activities.
Respite Stays
Many factors can necessitate temporary placement in a warm, welcoming environment that provides skilled nursing care. Our short-stay program, also known as Respite Stay, provides time you need with the peace of mind knowing your loved one is cared for in a comfortable and supporting place.

FAQs
When is it time to consider a nursing home for my loved one?
It may be time to consider a nursing home environment when both medical and personal care needs have become too great to handle at home or in another senior living community. This may be due to a recent hospitalization, or a chronic illness which has gradually been worsening.
Who do I speak with about financials, billing, and admission paperwork?
We have a full-time business office manager for all financial and billing concerns. If you have any questions regarding these matters please make an appointment with our business office manager through the front desk.
What can residents bring with them?
We provide all of the furniture your elderly parent needs in their room. However, to make it feel like home, most skilled nursing centers encourage residents to bring personal items such as family photos, a familiar bedspread, and treasured knickknacks.
How often does a physician or health professional visit?
Physicians generally see residents upon admission and once every 30 days thereafter. Though the physicians aren’t there every day, our nursing staff is in constant communication with each physician that visits the facility.
Can I take my loved one home for a visit?
Residents may take a leave of absence with a physician’s authorization, which can be arranged through the nursing staff. Residents who take a leave of absence must check in and out with the leave of absence (LOA) book at the nursing station.
Can I bring outside food in?
Please make sure to check with the nursing staff before bringing food in to ensure the food complies with special diets. Any food kept in resident rooms must be in a properly sealed container.
