Could you share pricing and any other general information?
Our cost is $530.80 per day to pay privately. We also accept Medicaid if there are not funds available to pay privately. We are a 309 bed skilled nursing facility, we offer short term rehab, long term care including dementia/memory care. We also have a 66 bed unit for patients with Huntington’s Disease.

The staff is trained on policies related to safety in the workplace. We have a wanderguard system in place to keep our wandering patients safe. We have fire drills as well as tabletop evacuation drills with our local community.
Do you offer any resources or support services to aid residents' transition into the community?
A social worker assists with the transition to home and ensures all needed medical equipment and services are provided prior to the patient being discharged home or to other care settings.
Do you offer transportation services for residents?
We do not offer transportation but work with ambulette companies for off sight appointments.
Could you tell me a little about your dining experience?
Each of our 40 bed units has their own dining room, we have a direct dining program which means meals are served from the dining room verses being plated in the kitchen and brought up to the units.
What is the process that takes place if a resident has a complaint or an issue they want addressed?
All complaints and concerns are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. The social worker meets with the resident to gather the information and escalates the complaint to the appropriate discipline. Once a complaint has been investigated the staff meets with the resident to discuss the outcome and steps taken to ensure the incident does not occur again. There is also an Ombudsman Program, which is a separate agency who is also available to meet with the residents.
What is your policy on communication with resident's families? How do you keep them updated about their loved ones' well-being?
We call families with any change in condition and encourage families to call us for updates in between. Many of our families call us daily for updates.

We do offer both short-term and respite stays. If a patient is paying privately, it is $530.80 per day, if Medicaid is established, Medicaid cover respite stays.
