Archbold Living - Pelham has 108 beds for skilled nursing care and is part of Archbold Memorial Hospital's long-term care. The facility is nationally accredited by The Joint Commission and licensed by both federal and state agencies, so it takes quality and safety seriously, and there's help always around with registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants assigned to each resident, plus services like pain management from a committee, wound care nurses, and a Certified Wound Specialist if wounds are difficult to treat, and there's also an on-site optician, dentistry, and podiatry care available, which makes it easier for people who can't leave much, and telemedicine specialty services make it even smoother. There's an inpatient program for people who need help with psychiatric or chemical dependency problems, things like depression, anxiety, substance abuse, or eating disorders, alongside medical social work, bereavement and spiritual help, and volunteer support, so there's a strong support system for residents and their families. Nursing care here includes medication management, help with bathing and dressing, supervision around the clock, transfer help, and assistance with daily activities, and the restorative nursing program, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, massage, and anodyne therapies all help people with recovery or long-term needs, while rehabilitation services keep things moving as best as possible after illness or surgery.
There are plenty of diagnostic services, including radiographies, ultrasounds, MRI studies, and CT scans, and specialty services such as dialysis, hospice, urgent care, and integrative health care, plus a focus on dietary services and food made and prepared by a professional chef from Morrison, with registered dietitians helping plan for things like special allergies and diabetes, and you do get choices with all-day dining and a restaurant-style setup. Rooms come furnished, and residents have a private bathroom, kitchenette, telephone, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and cable TV, so it's made for comfort, and there's a move-in coordinator and concierge services to help get settled. People can join in daily scheduled activities and community programs, with music, devotionals, arts and crafts, games, movie nights, seasonal events, outdoor common spaces like gardens and walking paths, and a spa/wellness room, and there's an on-site salon with licensed beauticians for hair and grooming needs, plus an emergency alert system for safety. Residents have access to transportation, parking, personal laundry, linen service, and daily housekeeping, so life's a bit smoother, and the staff takes care of medication, finances (with a Patient Financial Services representative and quarterly reports), and family support, too.
For those needing more than just the basics, there's Alzheimer's care, assisted living, long-term care, and support for those who've been in the hospital and need skilled care after an illness or surgery, and the facility keeps everything handicap accessible. It's a teaching site, too, with programs for nurses, dietitians, paramedics, therapists, and others, so you'll see students around, learning as part of their clinical rotations, all tracked through something called ACEMAPP, with all sorts of forms and requirements for safety and education. Social services help with emotional support, and the place keeps a library, community rooms for games or movies, and has activities run by residents, so there's company and things to do if you want. All this is aimed at making sure people are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, with as much support as different situations require.
