Fox Subacute at South Philadelphia

Fox Subacute at South Philadelphia is a skilled nursing facility with 22 beds that focuses on post-acute care and helping people who depend on ventilators, and a team of nurses, doctors, respiratory therapists, dieticians, and other specialists work together here all the time, day and night, using advanced technology and a team-centered approach so every patient has a care plan that fits their needs. The staff can help manage and wean people from ventilators, and patients get 24-hour respiratory support, advanced wound care, and special services like dialysis-with equipment like facility-wide oxygen and vacuum systems making it easier to care for serious breathing problems or illnesses. People can get treatment for conditions like ALS, COPD, muscular dystrophy, end-stage renal disease, pneumonia, sleep apnea, stroke, respiratory failure, brain or spinal injury, cancer, seizure disorders, multiple sclerosis, GERD, coronary artery disease, and other complex health needs, with both short and long-term care available, since they do subacute rehab, long-term nursing, respite, and palliative care as well. Certified nursing staff is always available and doctors visit on-site, so support is never far away, and with different kinds of therapy (physical, occupational, speech, recreational), along with sensory and recreation programs led by trained therapists and social services, the facility tries to keep patients' days active and meaningful. Some rooms are private, some are shared, and a facility van goes out for activities in the community when possible, while the whole place tries to make everyone feel comfortable and included. Fox Subacute at South Philadelphia works closely with hospitals and other health providers and is licensed as a nursing home in Pennsylvania, aiming to see the whole person, not just their diagnosis, and working with families as part of each resident's care.
