Montgomery Subacute and Respiratory Center

Montgomery Subacute and Respiratory Center is a 60-bed skilled nursing facility located in Plymouth Township, northwest of Philadelphia, with easy access from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and other nearby areas, which means families have a few different ways to get there without too much trouble, and the center puts a strong focus on specialized care for folks with respiratory needs, handling things like ventilator management, pulmonary rehabilitation, and hemodialysis, while also offering wound care and dementia care, and it's received national recognition for quality care, including the Bronze - Commitment to Quality Award from AHCA/NCAL, but even so, the facility has had 22 inspection deficiencies, including citations for not always telling residents or families about issues right away, not always protecting residents from wrongful use of their belongings or money, and one infection control violation, which is something people should weigh when considering a place. The center runs under Marquis Health Consulting Services, operating as a for-profit LLC, and Marquis Limited LLC has been involved since December 2022, which brings experience in managed care, and ongoing support from Marquis Health Services. The average daily census runs about 54 residents, and the nursing staff provides about 5.28 hours of care per resident per day, though the nurse turnover rate is around 34.9%, and there's on-site staff to supervise and provide immediate care. There's an experienced leadership team with a Director of Nursing, a Human Resource Director, and the facility recently added Dr. Pandya, a pulmonologist, to support the specialized respiratory and ventilator care programs. Montgomery offers a range of services like short-term rehab for those coming out of the hospital, long-term and intermediate care for frail residents, as well as subacute care and comprehensive rehabilitation, so there's a bit of everything from basic post-acute recovery to more complex respiratory therapy, including Urgent SNF™ for 24/7 stabilization, Care Navigation, Rehabbing Care™, and a continuum of care options for those needing help in between the hospital and returning home. The building has been set up with amenities aimed at making recovery more comfortable and feels a bit homey, which some residents may appreciate. While the facility has shown commitment to quality through national awards, families should also consider the facility's past deficiencies and staff turnover when making decisions. Montgomery Subacute and Respiratory Center accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and most insurances, and more information about their programs or services can be found on their website.
