Waterview Nursing & Rehabilitation Center sits in Flushing, New York, right on 27th Avenue with a view of Flushing Bay, and the facility holds 180 beds for both short-term and long-term care. Residents get fresh meals every day, cooked by a culinary team, with menus shaped by a registered dietitian, and everyone eats in a comfortable dining room. There's a beauty salon on site where people can get their hair done, and spa services are available too. The grounds are secured, with outdoor patios and gardens where people can enjoy time outside.
Residents can join activities and entertainment programs that include pet therapy with visits from therapy dogs, fitness classes, painting lessons, birthday parties, and trips outside the center. Rooms come with cable TVs at the bedside, telephones, and electric beds for comfort. The care here covers rehabilitation therapy like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and there's a strong focus on medical care, including wound care, pain management, intravenous therapy, and specialized programs for strokes and heart conditions.
The rehabilitation team, led by the Rehabilitation Director/COTA/L DeLois Dillard, works alongside a Wound Care Team that checks in weekly. The staff also includes ACLS Certified Nurses on both long-term and short-term units, RNs, a Wound Care Certified Director of Nurses, and other dedicated healthcare workers.
