Walworth County Care Center is a small, nonprofit nursing facility offering both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care services for seniors. As a community committed to providing essential healthcare and assistance, the Care Center supports up to 50 residents at a time. It participates in both Medicare and Medicaid programs, allowing individuals with varying financial backgrounds access to its care offerings.
The center specializes in helping residents regain independence following hospitalization through its short-term rehabilitation program. Many patients come to Walworth County Care Center to recover from conditions such as stroke, heart attack, infections, or accidental injuries. The rehabilitation program emphasizes safety and promotes returning home when possible, with a team of nursing staff providing an average of 3 hours and 13 minutes of care per resident each day. The facility pays particular attention to regular nurse staffing and maintains above-average consistency between weekday and weekend shifts.
For those in need of ongoing support, Walworth County Care Center's long-term care program focuses on helping residents maintain their ability to carry out daily activities, such as moving, eating, and managing personal care. Nearly nine out of ten residents are able to sustain some degree of independence with these tasks during their stay. The health and wellness of residents are prioritized, exemplified by the facility’s high flu vaccination rate among its long-term population.
Walworth County Care Center is not part of a continuing care retirement community and does not operate within a hospital, but instead provides a dedicated, supportive environment tailored for older adults needing rehabilitation or extended care. Its nonprofit and corporate status reflect a mission-driven approach to resident well-being. Across both short-term and long-term care, the center aims to foster dignity, health, and quality of life for all who call it home.
