Our skilled nursing and rehabilitative care is usually provided on a short term basis for residents with an acute medical condition (i.e., post-operative care, fractures, stroke, etc.) All care and services provided for these residents are under the direct supervision of their physician. Our skilled services include the following:

• Skilled nursing services – these services may include intravenous therapy, wound care, enteral feeding, injections, diabetic care, and pain management.
• Rehabilitative services – these services include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech and language therapy provided by our on-site rehabilitation team.

All residents receive skilled services under guidelines established by Medicare. These services are paid by Medicare, Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), and/or private insurance companies. Medicare beneficiaries have a maximum skilled nursing benefit of 100 days. Skilled services may be discontinued when the resident no longer requires the skills of a licensed nurse or therapist or if the resident exhausts the 100-day insurance benefit.
