Peninsula Nursing and Rehabilitation stands in Far Rockaway, NY, near local shops and other resources, and folks will find it welcoming with bright spaces thanks to recent renovations, where the lobby and dining room are made to feel relaxing and open for residents and visitors, and people can choose rooms with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and comfortable furniture, which means you can settle in and have your comforts around you while still getting all the care you need, with nurses on site for 12-16 hours and a 24-hour call system always ready for help, so if someone needs nursing care, medication management, physical assistance, or support with bathing and dressing, the staff handles it, and you'll see that care's both personal and built on each person's needs, whether that's short-term rehab after a hospital stay or long-term help with daily life.
The team-nurses, therapists, physicians, and specialists-all work together to plan individualized care, using modern equipment and current treatment methods, and you'll get physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, wound care, and comfort care for chronic illness, as well as specialist visits and physician services that include full diagnostic and treatment work, and those who need it can get help with dialysis in the center run by Cassena Kidney Care, or take part in cardiac rehab, IV therapy, post-operative care, respiratory therapy, geriatric care management, palliative care, hospice, and social work services, so there's a wide reach for medical needs, whether those are complex or just require general support.
The facility puts energy into wellness, not just as treatment, but for the whole person, and you find social programs, arts and crafts rooms, a movie theater, resident-run activities, music programs, a fitness room, a spa with a sauna and wellness space, along with outdoor walking paths, a garden, and an area for trips and entertainment, plus family and friends transport programs to make visiting easy, so people don't feel cut off from their community or loved ones, which matters a lot for staying active and engaged.
Dining is available on site with a focus on comfort and variety, and religious services fit all denominations, and there's even pet visitation for those who want animal company, and if you like to keep neat or enjoy pampering, there's a beauty parlor and barber shop too, while daily schedules offer a mix of fitness, games, relaxation, and learning, and seniors are encouraged to rediscover independence and take part in things that feel meaningful to them. Renovations have brought in natural light and a more upbeat look to every space, giving a sense of calm and safety.
For anyone healing or needing specialized rehab, there's a strong sub-acute and post-acute care program, and for folks who need to live in a supportive setting for the long haul, you get quality nursing, activity choices, and round-the-clock help without giving up comfort or privacy, so Peninsula Nursing and Rehabilitation aims to meet a wide variety of needs with compassion, clear routines, and a commitment to overall wellness in mind, body, and spirit.
