Delaney Park Health and Rehabilitation Center sits in Orlando and has been serving Orange, Osceola, Lake, and Seminole counties for over forty years, and folks come here for both short-term and long-term care in a home-like setting that feels warm but isn't fancy. The center holds 89 beds and runs as a non-profit, offering basic care for people recovering from surgeries, illnesses, injuries, or those who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and eating. The building has private rooms, some with private bathrooms, and beds with safety features, and staff includes Registered and Licensed Practical Nurses working around the clock, along with Certified Nursing Assistants, therapists in physical, occupational, and speech areas, social workers for emotional support, and even housekeeping and laundry services. Nurses and Certified Nursing Assistants assist residents by managing medications, overseeing wound care, and providing palliative support for folks with terminal illness, and there's also a respite program for families who need a break.
People at Delaney Park Health and Rehabilitation Center get care that meets their individual needs, made together with staff, doctors, and family, and nurses bring in specialized therapies for diabetes, pain management, congestive heart failure (CHF), heart failure, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), plus services for those who've been through strokes, heart problems, spinal cord injuries, or surgeries on bones or joints. The team includes a Certified Wound and Ostomy Nurse, Cardiopulmonary, Lymphedema, and Neurological Physical Therapists, and therapists who help with Vestibular Rehabilitation and Vitalsim Therapy. Folks with complex medical needs get services for things like chest tubes, tracheostomies, wound vacs, feeding tubes (TPN), high oxygen up to 10 liters, and Lifevest management, and there's a Wander Guard System in place to keep vulnerable residents safe. Wound care and therapy for bed sores or pressure ulcers are available, and special attention goes to risks like dehydration, malnutrition, and medicine mistakes, with a full medication management program that teaches and assists as needed.
Rehabilitation is a big part of life here, aiming to help residents get as independent as possible, whether they're going home soon or staying a while. The environment encourages communication, compassion, dignity, and respect, and the staff works as a team to keep the place running. There have been compliance issues in the past with staffing and health inspections, and families often do well to ask about these and keep up with any changes. Delaney Park makes an effort to meet its mission of providing individualized care, and staff tries to keep learning and growing to take better care of the folks who stay.
