Though most of our residents only need general nursing services, we are equipped to handle more concentrated medical care.
Cardiac care can help someone recovering from a heart attack or bypass surgery or experiencing abnormal heart rhythms or high cholesterol. Specialized cardiac care can reduce the risk of subsequent heart attacks and death from other causes.
We understand that old skin is fragile and that even mild wounds can be painful for the elderly and slow to heal. Our wound management program uses state-of-the-art expertise in the care and treatment of skin conditions.
Dialysis support is necessary when a person’s kidneys are not able to filter their blood. Our dialysis program is designed to be as convenient and stress-free as possible for our residents.
Infusion (IV) therapy is a way to administer drugs or nutrients that cannot be taken by mouth. Some reasons for IV therapy are pain management, dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, infections, diabetes, cancer, renal failure and sometimes in conjunction with ventilator support.
Respiratory services can help those with breathing impairments to control or lessen their symptoms or complications. Services include tracheostomy care, ventilator support and respiratory therapy.
Pain management is the process of providing medical care that alleviates or reduces pain. Management of pain is extremely important in healthcare because patients who are in severe pain often become agitated or depressed and have poorer treatment outcomes.
Cerebrovascular accident (CVA), or stroke, is the sudden death of brain cells due to a lack of oxygen when the blood flow to the brain is impaired. Our stroke (CVA) care helps each patient address their unique stroke effects with the goal of helping them regain their independence and return to their homes.
According to the American Diabetes Association, almost 17 million Americans have diabetes, including more than 20 percent of the U.S. population aged 65 and older. Diabetic care can help those with diabetes learn how to manage the disease and keep control of their lives.
