Buckingham Valley Rehabilitation And Nursing Center

Buckingham Valley Rehabilitation And Nursing Center sits at 820 Durham Rd, Newtown, PA, and has served the community for over 52 years with a 130-bed facility registered for Medicare and Medicaid. The rooms have private bathrooms, safety alarms, and air conditioning, and come fully furnished with cable and high-speed internet, plus kitchenettes and telephones, which means seniors get some comfort and privacy along with safety features like smoke alarms and handicap fixtures. This nursing care and assisted living community has a 5 out of 5 stars rating from Medicare for safety and quality. Residents can use the laundry on-site, relax in public living areas, and eat in a large community dining room where a chef prepares meals, including special diets for people with diabetes or allergies. The facility provides medical care, personal care help with things like bathing, dressing, medication management, transfers, and runs skilled nursing with 24-hour support along with an emergency alert system in every room. Therapy services-like physical, speech, and occupational-are part of specialized programs such as Spark Rehab and Rapid Recovery Program, which focus on helping residents gain strength and independence, working closely with doctors to keep rehospitalization down. Those who don't need constant skilled nursing but aren't safe living alone can get intermediate care or join the assisted living area, where staff help with daily needs. Housekeeping, linen service, and dry cleaning are handled by the staff so residents have less to worry about, and transportation is available for doctor visits or community trips. There's a fitness room, wellness center, beauty salon, and areas for games, arts, a library, computers, a movie theater, gardens, and walking paths so residents have places to walk, socialize, or join various daily or resident-run activities. The place puts care into training staff, offering dementia and Alzheimer's support, and keeping communication open between families, residents, and healthcare providers so everyone knows what's going on. Gary R. Segal, the Executive Vice President, leads the management here, and though the facility isn't BBB accredited, it offers continuing care from post-hospital recovery all the way to memory care. Seniors can find practical help researching care options, eligibility for services, and planning for the future. The facility aims to keep things simple, safe, and neighborly so nobody feels like they've lost their home, just found a different one with some extra support.
