What Type of Short and Long-Term Skilled Nursing Care Is Available?
Some of the services we offer as part of our 24-hour care include:
- Pain management
- IV therapy
- Nutritional assistance and monitoring
- Post-surgical care
- Physical therapy
- Occupational therapy
- Speech therapy
We also offer wound vac services to help those with non-healing or problematic wounds. This is the same high-quality care you’d expect to see in a wound care center, only it’s conveniently located within our community.
A non-healing wound is typically one that hasn’t completely healed within four weeks. There are several reasons that a wound may not heal. These are:
- Poor circulation
- Infection
- Edema
- Poor nutrition
- Repeat trauma to the wound
Without proper wound care, serious complications can arise. We know that many older adults can be susceptible to non-healing wounds, which is why we’ve brought together a staff that is knowledgeable, caring and committed to providing your loved one with the highest level of care
