Skilled nursing provides 24-hour care and services for people following a short-term, acute event or illness or because of a long-term event or illness. Some examples of skilled services include wound care, intravenous therapy, injections, catheter care, physical therapy, and monitoring of vital signs or medical equipment. Short-term rehabilitation services may be covered by Medicare with some plans requiring prior authorization.
Long-term care is when a person cannot complete care without another person’s assistance. It encompasses Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) assistance (grooming, bathing, dressing, or eating), medication administration, and more. This is typically covered by Medicaid, long-term care insurance, or paid for out-of-pocket.

We want your stay to be as comfortable as possible and we understand things can go wrong. Let us know how we can help solve your problems or concerns in “real-time”. We have a Grievance Officer, and the staff will help you complete a pink grievance form for things like missing clothing, meals you didn’t like, activities not to your preference, and similar. If you believe abuse or neglect has occurred, tell the nurse who will contact the On-Call Abuse Coordinator. The Abuse Coordinator will meet with you either “live” or by phone to discuss your concerns.
