Bay Marina Post Acute

Bay Marina Post Acute sits on Fruitvale Avenue in Oakland as a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility where folks can recover from surgery, serious illness, or injury, and the place has a tendency to feel pretty warm and cheerful thanks to a steady flow of social activities, exercise programs, and recreational events, and folks here might spend their days enjoying visiting beauticians, spiritual services, and transportation for appointments or outings, while staff provide round-the-clock nursing care with licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants always nearby. The place offers both short-term and long-term care with physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and folks will find care for things like pain management, wound care, post-surgical needs, and IV therapy, all with diets planned by a dietitian to suit each resident's needs. The building is a single story and set up with semi-private rooms, and they usually have about 85 folks staying at once, out of 94 certified beds, and the staff bring some language diversity, though English is the main language. The staff uses a resident-focused approach with individual care plans, and they try to keep things bright, friendly, and supportive while helping people stay as independent as possible. Bay Marina Post Acute is run by Corporate Interface Services LLC, under a for-profit structure, and is affiliated with Windsor, and the whole setup stays under federal standards for skilled nursing, including infection control. Still, recent state inspections did turn up deficiencies, including problems with infection control, supervision, and the reporting of suspected abuse or neglect, and there's a recorded nurse turnover rate of about 40 percent, which means some staff changes happen fairly often. With a nurse staffing ratio averaging about four nurse hours per resident per day, Bay Marina works to offer comprehensive care and rehabilitation, but it isn't accepting new patients right now. The facility takes a holistic approach, looking after physical, social, and emotional health, and keeps a small, approachable feel much of the time, but like any place, it has its challenges as noted in inspection reports.
