Rutland Nursing Home

OBH Rutland Nursing Home sits in Brooklyn, NY and has served a mix of people from different backgrounds for over 50 years, and you'll find that it's operated by the One Brooklyn Health System, working closely with Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, Schulman and Schachne Institute for Nursing Rehabilitation, and Interfaith Medical Center. The care team has experienced nurses, social workers, therapists, and dietitians who give specialized help and round-the-clock care for anyone who might need nursing, rehabilitation, or even long-term support, plus they've got physicians who understand the complex needs for children and adults, including a dedicated 32-bed pediatric long-term care unit meant for children with severe developmental and metabolic problems, which is a rare find you don't see everywhere. You'll see therapists offering physical, occupational, recreational, and speech therapies using modern equipment, while licensed nurses give skilled nursing care, and you can tell they take care of a wide range of health needs, whether it's primary care, cardiac care, endocrinology, rehabilitation, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, or specialty medical fields like pediatrics, neurology, nephrology, infectious disease, and all types of surgeries such as cardiothoracic, face, head, and neck, just to name a handful, so if someone needs help with everyday needs, there's long-term care and even dietitians who plan meals for each person. Residents, including those in the nursing facility or in the special pediatric area, have daily social services-activities and programs-helping each person stay as active as possible, and memory care services serve people with Alzheimer's and dementia, plus you'll spot licensed nurses and pediatricians on-site every hour of every day, which is something families do value. With Genevieve Sorensen, RN, LNHA, watching over the long-term care as vice president, and Neil Pollack as administrator, the place seems organized and focused on health, but also on giving a welcoming space for both patients and visitors, taking into account not only medical conditions but overall comfort, and from what anyone can tell, they've really built a setting where both inpatient care and rehabilitation are priorities, making sure the therapy, the meals, and the activities suit each resident's medical and personal needs.
