Claiborne Rehabilitation sits in Homer, Louisiana, and has been helping local families for over 30 years, making it a familiar place for those who need short-term rehab or long-term skilled nursing care whether coming right from the hospital, recovering after surgery, or living with ongoing health needs, and folks can depend on care from licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants around the clock. The facility has 70 licensed beds, with private rooms that come furnished with flat screen TVs and cable, and the living environment feels secure and comfortable, with outdoor spaces for picnics or gatherings and even a family dining room where home-cooked meals are served. Meals are planned by a registered dietician, so residents get healthy foods, and there are services for cleaning, housekeeping, and help with daily activities-all meant to help folks feel cared for while staying as independent as possible.
The place offers both physical and occupational therapy right there in the building, and there's in-house rehabilitation, which covers everything from walking and balance training to help with strength and mobility after illness or surgery, plus speech therapy for those needing help with swallowing, language, or hearing problems, and if someone needs more long-term help, there are special care plans made to fit each person. There's a clinical laboratory, diagnostic X-ray, pharmacy services with a licensed pharmacist reviewing medication, and a mix of onsite medical professionals, including physician services and physician extenders. Therapy areas are set up for different kinds of rehabilitation, and there's a dedicated team approach for each patient's care.
Grace's Place is a quiet hospice suite inside the building, where residents and families get emotional and spiritual support, while the staff helps with both nurse care and comfort for those nearing the end of life. Respite care is also available if families need a break or a temporary place for their loved one.
Residents find things to do year-round, with an activity director who plans games, outings, arts and crafts, Bible studies, puzzles, painting, and even dancing, and there are organized resident groups, plus a beauty and barber shop and a newly remodeled spa for personal care. Social services help families and residents with counseling and financial aid if needed, keeping everyone connected and supported. Claiborne Rehabilitation is part of NELA Healthcare Alliance and is certified for Medicare and Medicaid, so it can serve many older adults with varying needs, focusing on medical and rehabilitative care, always aiming to help folks recover as much as possible and keep their quality of life strong every day.
