Comfortable and Welcoming Surroundings
Elmcroft Skilled Nursing is delivered in a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Our living spaces – both indoor and out – are professionally designed for maximum comfort. Suites are designed with privacy in mind to respect the dignity of our residents, and can be decorated with family mementos and cherished keepsakes. Nutritious and delicious meals are prepared by a professional culinary staff and served restaurant-style in our specially designated dining rooms, so our residents enjoy social and pleasant mealtime experiences.
With a focus on individual attention, our residents who need nursing care receive a range of daily activities that keep them mentally engaged and as safely active as possible. Their preferences are always taken into consideration. That means if they feel like being social, we help them join in with activities like a sing-along or trivia game. If they prefer more solitary activities, we can accompany them on a walk or in quiet conversation.
Coordinated Medical Care
While we provide nursing care, some residents may require additional medical support, such as physical therapy or specialist visits. We’ll coordinate with those providers and bring that care onsite for added convenience.
Compassionate Caregivers
Our Skilled Nursing staff include on-site licensed nurses, fully-trained personal care staff and a licensed physician who supervises each resident’s care. So, while medical attention is always at hand, so too is individual, caring support like a listening ear or an encouraging word.
