Gates Health and Rehab

Gates Health and Rehab sits out in the quiet farmlands of Gates County, North Carolina, with seventy skilled nursing beds, and you'll find it's been taking care of people for almost thirty years. You see all sorts of care options here, not just long-term care, but also independent and assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, non-medical home care, adult day services, home health care that's Medicare-certified, and hospice, which all sounds like quite a lot for any one place. The staff, including Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, and Certified Nursing Assistants like Kailyn Wilson (who also helps as a Bubble Campus Ambassador), are always busy providing care that fits each person's needs, whether somebody's here for the short term or staying for longer. There's an all-equipped gym for therapy, run by a team of full-time therapists that help people with stroke recovery, pain, wound care, and post-surgical rehab, and they also have set care routines for those living with dementia, which you don't see everywhere. Carlton, the Activities Director, was even named Employee of the Month, which folks seem proud about around here. People say it's a serene, peaceful place, and you'll usually hear that the caregivers treat everyone with warmth and kindness, focusing on compassion and respect even though it's a public company and not privately owned. The amenities include cable and Wi-Fi, which come in handy for staying connected or passing time during a long stay, and you can schedule a tour if you're thinking about it, but you'll want to call ahead. La'Ticia Beatty runs the place as Administrator, and with 11-50 staff members, it's big enough to offer a wide range of hospital-type care without feeling overwhelming, set right at 38 Carters Rd in Gatesville. Most people say the care here is centered around what the residents truly need, not a one-size-fits-all approach, and the surroundings make it feel pleasant and relaxing for folks coming from all sorts of backgrounds.
