Bayside Health and Rehabilitation Center sits in Pensacola, FL and is often called Bayside Manor in the community, and it's set up with 120 certified beds for both short and long-term care. The place is managed by Mathew Varghese since April 2022, and direct ownership is under Bayside Manor Operating Holdings LLC, with an affiliation to Benjamin Landa. The center focuses on helping seniors recover and keep their independence, and offers assisted living along with rehabilitation services. Staff help residents with bathing, dressing, taking medicine, and other daily needs and they try to be compassionate and keep everyone comfortable. Chef-prepared meals are served in a dining area, and they work with nutritionists and meal planners to keep meals nutritious. Residents have access to wound treatment, cardiac care, physical and speech therapy, and the staff uses a patient-centered care approach that's supposed to help folks with physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and psychological needs, which some folks find helpful when they're in recovery, though every experience is different.
Bayside Health and Rehabilitation Center keeps nurse staffing at about 3.87 hours per resident each day, though nurse turnover is a bit high with 57.9%. In the last inspection, there were six deficiencies noted; some were about keeping a safe, clean, and home-like environment, and there were some dietary issues like food sourcing and kitchen sanitation, none causing actual harm but with a chance for more than minimal harm. A few deficiencies involved respecting residents' rights to dignified living and communication, which did affect a small number of people. The center has received Best of Senior Living and All-Star awards, which shows strength in care and support according to outside groups, though as with any place, experiences may vary from person to person.
Amenities and a Life Enrichment program are part of the community here, and they try to make daily life interesting and enjoyable. There's a virtual tour available online, with 360-degree views of patient rooms and the patio, and you can find further information on their website if you want to see what the rooms and outdoor spaces look like. Care at Bayside Health and Rehabilitation Center tends to be personalized, focusing on helping people recover and maintain quality of life, and staff try to use a compassionate and committed approach in daily work, aiming to cover both medical and everyday needs for seniors.
