Birchwood Plaza Nursing-Rehab

Birchwood Plaza Nursing-Rehab is a 200-bed nursing and rehabilitation center where people find skilled nurses, therapists, and licensed care staff to help with both short-term recovery after hospital stays and longer-term medical needs, and folks will find things here like an emergency call system in every bedroom and bath, an activity center, a library, a private dining area, and a chapel, and there's a synagogue on-site too. There's 24-hour skilled nursing, a secured unit for those who need memory care, special Alzheimer's programming, and a focus on recovery and regaining independence using advanced equipment and new therapy techniques, while dietary needs are well-looked after with kosher cuisine and strict attention to special diets from a registered dietitian. Residents have options for respite care, hospice care, subacute rehab, and long-term support, and the facility offers things like family connection programs, organized recreational groups, movies, games, outings, an arts and crafts room, fitness programs, a beauty/barber shop, housekeeping, and transportation, so there's usually something going on to help people socialize. Birchwood Plaza also manages chronic illnesses, post-surgery care, and ongoing therapy, providing help with meals, grooming, bathing, laundry, diabetic injections, and medication, along with regular occupational, physical, speech, and restorative therapies, and they make sure you're safe, comfortable, and have WiFi if you need it. People here can count on individualized care plans and plenty of support as Medicare and Medicaid are both accepted, so families find some peace of mind knowing their loved ones are well cared for, and even though Birchwood Plaza's a for-profit center, the staff works on making things warm, home-like, and respectful, which gets noticed by many who visit or stay. Recent updates make the place more inviting, especially the outdoor areas and community rooms, and being part of the Collaborative Healthcare Urgency Group (CHUG™) helps them stay up to date on emergency care.
