Stanley Post Acute

Stanley Post Acute sits at 12045 SE Stanley Avenue in Milwaukie and offers both post-acute care and long-term skilled nursing, and they've got a patient-centered team that looks after residents all day and night, so folks get help whenever they need it, whether that's skilled nursing, specialty care, or therapy. They use a team method where nurses, aides, and therapists work together to handle each person's needs with tailored plans, so residents can recover or get help managing their health long-term, and they've got transportation assistance for those who find getting around hard, and therapy and assessment services are available six or seven days a week for those needing physical, occupational, or speech help, and all the while, people can use private or semi-private rooms that are made for comfort. The staff handles many medical situations, from joint replacements and orthopedic rehab to stroke recovery, cardiac rehabilitation under the CHF Protocol, pulmonary care, post-op support, wound care, and even cancer and bariatric services, and they can also help with pain management, intravenous therapy, kidney or digestive issues, tracheostomy care, and offer on-site dialysis, which makes a big difference for people with ongoing health needs. The place is a continuing care retirement community, which means folks can stay as their needs change, and they can get case management and discharge planning to help them move home or to other care when they're ready. Dining areas, a welcoming lobby, and other amenities make it feel homelike, and there are always things to do to help people settle in and feel comfortable, and folks get help from a licensed team that works with insurance questions, care assessments, and admissions, even around the clock. The center trains and certifies nursing assistants through hands-on, real-world classes that include lectures, lab work, and clinical practice in a supporting environment, and the program's open to those at least 18 years old, with a clean background and a focus on teamwork, attention, good communication, and a real interest in helping others. After training, nursing assistants can care for people in Portland's network of partner centers. There's an inspiring physical therapy room for those working to regain independence, and everything's set up so people can live with as much dignity and health as possible, whether they're there for rehab, ongoing help, or just support with daily needs in a safe setting.
