Citizens Memorial Healthcare Facility

Citizens Memorial Healthcare Facility sits as a large, long-term care center with 111 beds where residents can get skilled nursing, rehab, and support for many needs, and you'll find it offers nursing care, assisted living, memory care, and independent living, so folks with different health needs and levels of independence all seem to have a place here, and if someone needs help with things like moving, bathing, or dressing, the staff-including registered nurses, LPNs, and CNAs-will help around the clock. The facility manages medications and offers services like pain management and hospice care, and meals are served on-site in a dining area where residents can get personalized meal plans, including help from a registered dietitian for special diets like diabetes or allergies, and everyone has access to snacks and meals throughout the day, usually one or two prepared meals per day. You'll find a beauty salon, fitness and therapy rooms, a courtyard with gazebo, bird aviary, and garden spaces where people can relax outdoors, and residents can use the library, computer center, game room, and sauna, plus enjoy things like pet therapy, bingo, movie nights, kids club visits, a yearly beauty pageant, and holiday parties, because the activity staff tries to keep days busy, even helping residents organize their own activities or setting up regular trips away from the facility in community vans. The rooms come furnished with kitchenettes, private or semi-private bathrooms with walk-in showers, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, and the whole place is wheelchair accessible, with extra help for those who need non-ambulatory care. Housekeeping and laundry get handled by staff, and the living spaces include both private and shared options, plus there's 24-hour supervision, a security system that locks doors at night, and a call system for emergencies. There's focus on safety, so visitors can come any time of day, but doors stay locked from 9 p.m. to 6:30 a.m., and family can join residents for meals or council meetings, because the place has both a resident council and a family council. Therapy is available for speech, physical, and occupational needs, often in a therapy gym, and pain management and recreational therapy are also offered, while pharmacy and medical supplies are on site to help people stay comfortable. Citizens Memorial Healthcare Facility takes Medicare and Medicaid, so more people can get care, and its inspection grades and staff ratings show solid quality in both long-term and short-term care, and the community has even earned a Silver Commitment to Quality award from the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living. Staff help with transportation to appointments or outings, set up daily activities, manage medication, and support residents in early stages of dementia, plus the place puts a lot of effort into making it feel homelike and safe for people with different health and care needs, whether you're staying short term after a hospital visit or making the place your new home.
