This depends on whether your doctor has privileges in the center where you are admitted. If he or she is not credentialed for your facility, then your case will be referred to another doctor who is on staff there.

Generally speaking, a skilled nursing facility is a clinical care provider of 24-hour licensed nursing. A SNF , as they are often referred to, is primarily engaged in providing services for residents who require medical or nursing care and/or therapy services for the rehabilitation of injured, disabled, or sick persons. Care typically includes: rehabilitation, intravenous therapy, post-surgical stabilization, pulmonary management, and wound care. Additionally, facilities provide assistance with administration of medications, and aid in a variety of daily living needs, including dressing, bathing, walking and eating.

Social services staff works with our residents and their families during times of transition. Our team provides information, addresses concerns and requests, and helps plan the discharge of each resident. Social Services can arrange professional services for any of the following: vision, dental, audiology (hearing), podiatry, psychosocial/psychiatric evaluation, creation of advance directives, dementia assessment, and individual therapy.

Physical, occupational, and speech therapies take place throughout the week. You will be evaluated after you arrive, then a personalized therapy plan will be created to best meet your needs. Wear tennis shoes and comfortable loose-fitting clothing.

Our activities and programs are created with residents in mind. We plan activities that suit the needs and capabilities of each resident. We find that this helps the healing process of our rehab patients. Activities include fitness programs, singing, trivia and games, religious meetings, musical performances and other entertainment. Families are encouraged to participate with residents. An activity calendar is provided so residents can stay informed on upcoming events like parties, movies, outings, ice cream socials, etc. As always, family and friends are invited and encouraged to attend.
