Seacoast Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits at 292 Washington Street in Gloucester, MA, and has 142 beds for residents and patients, and Brenna House serves as the Executive Director. The place is certified by the American Health Care Association and belongs to the Massachusetts Senior Care Association, which means it's part of groups working on quality and policy for senior care. Seacoast offers both long-term skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation for folks who need to recover before heading home, and the staff includes medical specialists, nurses, nutritionists, therapists, social workers, and dietitians, all there to address different resident needs. The center provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and has special programs for wound care, rehabilitation, and care at the end of life. There's even a separate unit for people with Alzheimer's disease, and the care teams write personalized plans to help each resident as best they can, which sometimes means focus on recovery and improving mobility, or sometimes helping someone settle in for longer-term comfort.
You'll find the building has a lobby, dining room, library, fireplaces, private rooms, patient rooms, and PT rooms, along with a courtyard, patio, a pond, and even a piano, which give folks some variety and comfort day to day, and there are recreational activities and educational seminars for both residents and family members. Seacoast specializes in making care transitions smoother and pays careful attention to improving culture and daily life for the people living there, and the staff push to keep residents safe with health programs like Sepsis Smart and Falls Prevention. Assisted living, hospice, and respite services are all available. Seacoast Nursing and Rehabilitation Center always works to respect the dignity and independence of residents, with the goal of keeping up the highest quality of life possible, and the team handles care planning, medical needs, and support as each person requires, while aiming for compassion, dignity, and respect in all they do.
