Englewood Health Care Center sits in Monroeville, AL and offers care for seniors who need different levels of support, and while there hasn't been much shared about its own story, you can see it's got a lot going on for its residents, whether they're there for long-term care, rehabilitation, or just daily support in a safe setting with 87 certified beds and an average of 73 residents settled in each day, making it a pretty active place. Folks there can get around-the-clock skilled nursing with a staff that puts in over five hours each day for every resident, which is more than the state average, and the nurse turnover rate stays lower than what you usually see in Alabama so there's a bit more consistency with caregivers.
You'll find private and semi-private rooms, common areas, and dining spaces set up for people to gather for meals and conversations, and there are indoor places for activities, devotional events, and socializing, plus offsite outings when possible, so no one gets too bored. There's a memory care unit designed for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, and they've also set up places like Crowne Place and The Meadows, which are part of their specific programs for different needs, and some services include hospice care, dentistry, nourishment care, pharmacy help, wound and pain management, and all the laundry gets taken care of too. Rehabilitation has its own dedicated rooms with a team of skilled therapists for physical, occupational, or speech therapy, whether someone's recovering from a surgery or a stroke, and people can get help managing medications, diabetes, incontinence needs, and infection control, all overseen by the Crowne Management group since 2009, tied in with Crowne Health Care and Crowne Operations, Inc.
Englewood gives options for assisted living, independent living for seniors who want a maintenance-free setup, and specialized memory care, and the staff provides personal care, extended care, and social services, so families are welcome and valued in the process. You see amenities like a grooming salon, nutritious meals made by chefs and meal planners, communal spaces, and a full slate of activities aimed to keep everybody as active as they want to be and feeling at home. Some inspection reports have found deficiencies, especially with infection control and resident protection, and there have been certain citations like F0600 and F0812, but the facility says it focuses on protecting residents from harm or neglect and has some care types aimed at preventing abuse and exploitation. Englewood is a licensed nursing home, certified for Medicare and Medicaid, and it accepts private insurance, HMOs, and long-term care insurance, so there are different ways to cover the costs. The center has held a CMS Five-Star rating for four years running, but even with good ratings, it's always smart for families to look at reports and understand what areas might need work.
