Wood Haven Rest Home, also known as Woodhaven Rest Home 1, sits in Edgecombe County, North Carolina, and has been serving seniors aged 55 and up for years by offering assisted living, memory care, respite care, and continuing care options to people who need help with daily life. Residents get regular meals, which means they won't have to cook, and the kitchen always tries to make healthy food that can fit different needs, so you'll find vegetarian, Kosher, and other special diets well handled. The place lets residents bring their pets, so long as they follow the rules, and the rooms come in a range of sizes-studio, one-bedroom, semi-private, or two-bedroom-all of them kept with a homey feel, plus each has enough space for comfort and lights that make it feel open, and folks often talk about the nice, clean dining spaces.
Staff at Wood Haven check on people throughout the day, help manage medicine, and remind everyone when it's time for pills or shots, especially for folks who need help with diabetes, such as insulin management and checking blood sugar. Staff also help with getting around, from beds to wheelchairs, and keep a watchful eye out for anyone at risk of wandering, using high-tech wander guards and special training for memory and dementia care, which lets families know their loved ones are safe. If emergencies come up, someone's always there, 24 hours a day. There are wheelchair-accessible showers, incontinence and non-ambulatory care, and a good pathway for folks who need physical therapy, either with on-site help or scheduled visits.
There's always something going on, from exercise and social activities to programs about local history, and the bus can take anyone out on trips to stores around town or off-site events if they sign up. The indoor common areas include a library, game room, movie space, craft and sewing area, and even a little coffee shop spot where people gather to chat, so nobody has to feel alone. For folks who need a break or short stays, they offer respite care, and they can also help with hospice and home care if things change and different support is needed. The care team knows how to support veterans, those using social security, private insurance, or private pay, and fees come in several types-community, respite, buy-in, or based on individual care levels-but that's meant to give options for paying and planning.
Wood Haven Rest Home is licensed as an assisted living and nursing home facility, operating under NPI number 1417028135, and the president is Ronald W. Wood. The place is easy to get around for those with mobility issues, offers parking for those who still drive, and aims to make life comfortable, safe, and social for every resident, and if someone wants to focus on art and music there are special events, sometimes honoring Ronnie Wood and his career in music and art, which makes for a unique sense of community.
