Williston Healthcare & Rehabilitation LLC, once known as Laurel Baye Healthcare, sits in Barnwell County and has served the area for over 40 years with a strong family atmosphere in a country setting, and folks around here say it's a clean place with friendly, caring staff that know how to pay attention and go the extra mile, which matters quite a bit when you're talking about someone needing real help. The facility holds 44 beds for skilled nursing care, including 9 private rooms, and covers both long-term and short-term stays, so whether someone needs to recover in the middle between hospital and going home, or needs help every day, there's skilled nursing, memory care, independent living, assisted living, hospice, and even respite care, with an emergency call system, housekeeping, cable TV, and internet access in the units, which helps folks stay comfortable and connected. They've got a residents lounge, restaurant-style dining, a courtyard with walkways, and a controlled access building to help everyone stay safe, plus there's always 24-hour nurse coverage with experienced nurses, CNAs, and support staff looking after residents' health, social, and spiritual needs-so it's more than just giving medicine or checking temperatures, there's an activities director, daily activities, regular social outings, on-site beauty services, a therapy room, and personalized diet plans to make sure people are cared for as individuals.
Rehabilitation is a big part of what goes on here, with professional physical, occupational, and speech therapies offered on both inpatient and outpatient bases, with Williston Healthcare & Rehabilitation LLC standing as the only outpatient rehab facility in Barnwell County, and that includes not just regular rehab but outpatient occupational and physical therapy too, so a lot of folks come here after a hospital stay to get stronger before they head home, and even those living at home can use their support programs, which reach into home care, home health, and hospice, with support and referrals available. The building's kept in good shape, has big, clean spaces, private bathrooms, 24-hour emergency maintenance, laundry services, and both transportation and medication management as part of daily life, while safety matters are addressed with WanderGuard systems, controlled building access, and a medical director overseeing care.
The facility's always got open visiting hours, so family and friends can come when needed, even if the main office staff only work weekdays, and there's a lot of emphasis on keeping everyone comfortable, making sure needs are met, and helping each person reach their best level of independence or comfort, because each resident or patient gets personalized care tailored just for them. Williston Healthcare & Rehabilitation LLC is managed by Nielson Financial Services Inc. out of Orlando, Florida, holds membership with the American Health Care Association and South Carolina Healthcare Association, and works with local groups and businesses to help support both the residents and the broader community, building lasting relationships for the long run.
