Highland Park Skilled Nursing & Wellness Centre

Highland Park Skilled Nursing & Wellness Centre sits in the Highland Park-Mount Washington area of Los Angeles, serving both short-term rehab and long-term care residents with a steady record of B- or better quality grades over time, which does bring some peace of mind. The facility sees to the needs of folks who need skilled nursing after surgery, help with wounds, medication, diabetes management, cardiac therapy, or mental health care, and has a team of reliable doctors and an attentive group of nurses-often described as caring and knowledgeable, and they give about 0.4 hours of hands-on care per resident each day, at least that's the posted average, which lines up with their recent A- grade for nurse quality. The building's been kept up-to-date, recently getting new floors and furniture, a freshened-up patio, and an updated nursing station, and with several patios and a more airy feeling inside, people do seem comfortable whether they're relaxing, joining activities, or eating meals outside when the weather's right. Recent inspections show the home does a good job avoiding major falls, and the staff follow the right guidelines to keep things clean and running smoothly. Medical and general transportation is offered, which is handy for appointments or outings, and registered nurses and staff are on-site with their hours posted for everyone's peace of mind. Highland Park Skilled Nursing & Wellness Centre is government-owned and takes both Medicare and Medicaid, and there's extra support like hospice, respite care, and comprehensive rehab therapies to help folks regain strength and independence, plus professionals there handle occupational and physical therapy, pain management, nutrition help, lab work, and X-rays. Residents and their families take part in councils to have their voices heard, making the place feel like a community and not too big, so care can be more personal and plans can fit each person's needs, and the activity department looks out for everyone's physical, emotional, and social well-being. While it's not a Continuing Care Retirement Community, it does offer around-the-clock skilled nursing and a wide range of amenities, aiming to keep people as comfortable and well-cared for as possible in a relaxed, home-like space.
