Elmwood Nursing Rehabilitation Hospital sits in a quiet and beautiful part of Berkeley, California, and serves people who need skilled nursing or rehabilitation care, whether they're recovering from surgery or need long-term help. This hospital has 77 beds and provides care all day and night, with a focus on making sure every resident gets the support they need. The place recently went through renovations, updating both the inside and outside spaces, which gives residents modern, comfortable rooms and calming outdoor areas full of greenery where they can spend time if they like the fresh air.
People who stay here can get complex nursing care, including IVs and wound care, and the staff work closely with doctors to help patients move smoothly from the hospital to Elmwood, and eventually, if possible, from Elmwood back home. The team-including nurses, therapists, and support staff-creates a care plan for each resident, whether the need is short-term post-surgical recovery, ongoing memory care and support, or hospice and palliative care for those with serious illnesses.
Elmwood offers a wide range of therapies, covering physical, occupational, and speech therapy, with special features and tools meant to help people recover lost skills and improve day-to-day life. Residents can join group activities or recreational programs to stay active and engaged, and anyone who needs extra help with everyday tasks will find tailored support here. The environment, both inside and out, stays calm and feels friendly, helping everyone feel more at home.
The facility partners with Kaiser and Alta Bates Summit medical centers, which helps make care even more coordinated and thorough, and it's part of a social care network platform that lets more people get services through specific programs. Elmwood is well-known in healthcare circles, holding a good reputation and various accreditations for solid, steady care. Staff here aim to be gentle, respectful, and attentive in every interaction, always focusing on each person as an individual.
