Parkville Care Center

Parkville Care Center sits at 5 Greenwood Street in Hartford and offers skilled nursing and long-term care for up to 150 residents, so it's a fairly large place, and you get a good range of services including skilled care, short-term rehabilitation, and memory care, along with help for folks who are justice-involved or hard to place, which isn't something every facility will do, and they focus on personalized care for people facing things like CHF, COPD, or the need for recovery after hospital stays, including after joint or spinal surgery with programs like Beyond the Joint Prehab and Prebook, and they've got Touchpoints Therapy and Touchpoints Rehab right there for outpatient or support needs, which is handy if a person needs to keep up their therapy after a hospital visit or even for longer-term support, plus there are respite care services if a break is needed for caregivers. The building is connected with the iCare Health Network and gets managed by iCare Management, LLC-ownership is split between Creative Investment LLC and Silver Investment LLC at 45% each, with a smaller portion held by Vantage Capital Investors LLC at 8%, so it's a for-profit corporation with various direct and indirect owners. Nurse coverage averages 3.26 hours per resident per day, which is less than the Connecticut average of 3.8 hours, but nurse turnover is lower here at 27.2% compared to the state's 38.9%, which can help with continuity of care, though recent inspection reports counted 33 deficiencies, including some about infection control, resident rights, quality of life and care, and preventing harm, and while the staff works to meet federal standards, the reports also mention times when more than one resident could have been put at risk. The building makes sure the basic needs are covered, including help with daily living such as bathing, dressing, transfers, plus medication management and wound care, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, and there's always supervision, with 12-16 hour direct nursing care and a call system all day and night, plus customizable care plans for each resident's needs. Residents get transportation and parking, and for people who like staying active, there's a fitness room, walking paths, outdoor spaces, and gardens that are good for a bit of quiet or visiting, and if time indoors sounds better, there are arts and activity rooms, a game room, a library, and activities like movie nights and music programs. Parkville Care Center participates in the Greater Hartford Memory Care Centers for people with Alzheimer's and dementia, and they're also involved with complex and transitional care if someone needs help moving from the hospital back to daily life. They provide both long-term and short-term skilled nursing, along with support for diabetic residents and other special needs, always aiming to keep things comfortable, safe, and as home-like as possible, even though the setting's more like a typical nursing facility, and there are specific services tailored for people needing justice-involved long-term care through MissionCare Health. The place is connected with the Connecticut Association of Health Care Facilities and the Connecticut Center for Assisted Living, which means a bit more in the way of resources and guides, like help with relocation for residents coming from other places.
