Nursing & Rehabilitation
Rehabilitative Care
Even the routine daily living activities can be difficult
after a hip fracture, knee replacement, stroke or lengthy
illness. At Prestige Care, an experienced team of medical
professionals utilize state-of-the-art equipment and innovative
approaches to help individuals regain as much strength,
balance and endurance as possible.
Our goal is optimal recovery. To make this happen, our
highly skilled nurses, therapists and technicians work
cooperatively with the individual’s physician to implement
a customized course of treatment that may include a combination
of physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/swallowing
therapy or other skilled nursing care.
We also believe that rehabilitative care and treatment
should be delivered throughout a resident’s stay to help
reduce the occurrence of injuries after they return home.
That is why you will find a variety of uneven surfaces,
including stairs, sand, gravel and more in the practice
areas of every one of our rehabilitation
centers. We want all of our residents to be ready
when they go home.
Long-Term Care
Long-term care is for individuals who need assistance
with the activities of daily living and periodic skilled
nursing. Nourishing meals and therapeutic diets may be
combined with restorative nursing and exercise to enhance
physical abilities.
Activities and events planned in consideration of each
resident’s abilities and interests provide the mental
stimulation that helps keep residents engaged in their
own care.
Daily nursing services and rehabilitation therapies are
provided according to the patient’s treatment program,
as prescribed by their personal physician. Skilled nursing
services may include:
- Disease specific treatment and management
- IV therapy
- Eternal therapy
- in management
- abilitative therapies (physical, speech & occupational)
- Pulmonary care
- Wound management
Hospice Care
The end of life is a period in which every individual deserves
compassion, dignity and respect. Our Hospice services provide
each individual with the medical care and emotional support
they need to make the most of the time they have left with
the ones they love.
Our focus is to help relieve pain and other symptoms so
residents can live comfortable and alert while maintaining
a reasonable course of medical care 24 hours a day. We work
cooperatively the resident and their family to coordinate
the delivery of psychological, emotional and spiritual support
consistent with each individual’s beliefs and wishes.
We honor living wills or advance directives and welcome
the involvement of outside counselors, therapists, social
workers, aides and volunteers. Visitors of all ages are
also welcome to visit residents under hospice care at any
time during the day or night.
Sub-Acute Care
Individuals with an acute illness, injury or disease sometimes
need one or more highly skilled medical services and frequent
assessments without all the resources and overhead of a
hospital environment. Sub-acute care is the delivery of
those services in a setting that allows for a better quality
of life.
Our sub-acute care program coordinates the delivery of specialized
care and treatment through a team approach that involves
the resident’s personal physician and other medical professionals
all working together on a course of care designed specifically
for them. A high tech, paperless charting system allows
the team to maintain accurate and up-to-date assessments
of every resident.
The individual’s unique course of care may include special
services, such as inhalation therapy, tracheotomy care,
intravenous tube feeding or complex wound care management.
These and other services are often combined with physical,
occupational or speech therapy as well as dialysis, IV therapy,
pain management and more for residents who require an extended
period of care.
