Nestled in a residential neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of the city, residents enjoy the natural, lush, green surroundings, while benefitting from the services we offer.
​
The secure and comfortable center provides a complete range of services for patients that are unable to return home after a hospitalization. Our Clinical Programs provide a safe transition from hospital to home with a depth of services. The objective of our transitional care program is to help our guests achieve their goal of reaching their full potential and getting home as soon as possible. Your care is managed through our Interdisciplinary Care Team of attending Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, nursing team, therapy teams, and social services.
Typical therapy treatments are from Monday to Friday. However, unlike many other nursing facilities, our therapy team is available seven days per week to maximize each guests recovery. The therapist will also identify any barriers or safety risks in the home setting. Family and guest education is geared to the specific diagnosis and our Social Worker will coordinate Outpatient Therapy or Home Health Services.
