There's a beauty salon and barber shop for haircuts and beautician services, too. Staff deliver round-the-clock skilled nursing care, palliative care, and respiratory therapy in a safe, supportive setting, and recently renovated common areas and living quarters make for a more welcoming place to recover. The facility has Wi-Fi throughout, enabling easy family communication and telehealth, and amenities focus on making residents comfortable, fostering connection, and encouraging a sense of community. Executive Director Ms. Erin Blakely leads the team, and the center carries a license from the Agency for Health Care Administration, valid until July 26, 2026, under number 11830962. The property's not BBB accredited, but it does have the required licensing for healthcare and rehabilitation, and it operates as a nursing home focused on elder care, skilled nursing, and post-acute recovery, helping folks regain their strength or settle in for longer-term stays in a setting where residents can feel cared for and safe.
