Sycamore Run Nursing & Rehabilitation Center sits in Millersburg, Ohio, and has a long list of medical and daily support services for seniors, with most residents being around 75 years old though there's no strict age limit, and the place runs with 108 certified beds and cares for about 91 people daily-folks can get either private or semi-private rooms and spend time in fenced-in gardens, activity rooms, or even a movie theater, all meant to make daily life more comfortable. The staff, trained in various specialties, includes board-certified internal medicine doctors heading up care teams and services run day and night, with the nurses providing around 3.5 hours of direct care per resident, which is a bit under Ohio's average, though turnover for nurses here stays lower than what's seen in many other places. Residents can get many therapies, like physical therapy for things like joint and heart recovery, or occupational therapy meant to help with daily tasks, and there's speech therapy for swallowing and talking problems, all with a lot of focus on a tailored approach and newer equipment, plus there's memory care for folks living with Alzheimer's or dementia.
Sycamore Run deals with all sorts of medical needs, like intravenous therapies, oxygen, wound care, tracheotomy and catheter help, and also helps with the sort of daily work like bathing, eating, and remembering medicine, with staff always on call twenty-four hours a day and specialized programs for short stays, end-of-life care, and even respite relief for families who need a little break. On top of medical care, residents can take part in music events, art activities, and use on-site rooms for games, crafts, or reading, and outside spaces for walks or gardening, plus the buildings have amenities such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and air conditioning, and even transportation or parking help for family visits. The place is approved to accept Medicare, Medicaid, and Veterans Administration payments and works with different insurances, and it does have a formal process for families who need more information or want to tour rooms and common areas.
Sycamore Run has had some troubles in the past, like 17 deficiencies on inspection reports-including concerns about respecting residents' rights, safe management of money for those who can't do it themselves, and an issue related to infection control-but it's stayed under the direction of Foundations Health Solutions, LLC since 2019, and has kept running under Ohio's license for skilled nursing and rehab centers. The approach at Sycamore Run is to have teams from different fields work together to meet both medical and personal needs as much as possible, and lots of folks find the array of therapies, spiritual support, behavioral care, and social activities a key part of staying socially and physically active even as health needs grow more complex.
