Royal Care Skilled Nursing Center sits at 2725 Pacific Avenue in Long Beach, California, and you can find the main campus right in that spot, with Ms. Beth Garver as Executive Director. The place has room for 90 folks and takes care of both short-term and long-term stays, offering private and semi-private rooms so people can settle in comfortably, whether they're staying for only a little while or longer. A team made up of Registered Nurses, Licensed Vocational Nurses, and Certified Nursing Assistants works around the clock, taking care of residents with all sorts of needs. There's always a Medical Director and doctors overseeing care, day and night.
You'll notice the place tries hard to help people get back to their best functioning level or move to a lower level of care when ready, focusing on patient recovery after surgery, illness, or injury with the main goal of positive rehabilitative therapy and steady nursing care. Folks get access to physical, occupational, speech, and even respiratory therapy seven days a week if needed, and by working together, their staff puts together plans just for each person, using progressive treatments and up-to-date medical equipment. For those with heart disease or urinary tract infections and people needing cardiac recovery programs, orthopedic-fracture care, or wound and skin management, the staff has experience in all those areas.
If someone needs special support, there's diabetic management, fall management, pain and contracture help, continence improvement plans, stroke recovery, and a full respiratory program. They also help out with tracheostomy care, ostomy care, ophthalmology, total parented nutrition (TPN/PPN), enteral therapy with feeding tubes, IV therapy including continuous antibiotics, and PICC line care, right there on-site. Their nurses take care of post-acute surgical cases, and there's hospice service for residents and families who need it.
Royal Care Skilled Nursing Center sees the value in good meals and recreation, too. There's an open dining room with balanced meals, and registered dietitians plan therapeutic options and supplements for each person's needs. Daily activities like movies, barbecue dinners, holiday parties, and community outings give folks reasons to stay active and social. Social services include counseling, help planning discharges, and meetings for families to get together. Outdoor spaces are set up so residents can sit in the sunshine or feel the ocean breezes, and everything's arranged to make the place as comfortable and home-like as possible.
The place says they accept admissions 24 hours a day, making it easier if someone needs care right away. Royal Care operates under its Health and Human Services Agency license, and with 51-200 employees, the staff tries to cover all the main therapy and nursing needs a person might expect in a nursing home these days, all while keeping things as comfortable, positive, and reassuring as possible.
