Blue Ridge Rehab Center, located at 300 Blue Ridge St in Martinsville, VA, served as both a nursing facility and an assisted living facility until it stopped providing patient care in 2019. The center's focus remained on offering skilled nursing services day and night, aiming to create a home-like environment where residents could feel comfortable and supported. Residents had access to physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapy, whether they were staying short-term to recover from surgery, illness, or injury, or living there long-term due to chronic conditions.
People who needed more complex care, like ventilator support or trach care for severe lung or neurological problems, could find specialized help from teams of licensed nurses, therapists, and doctors. There were 20 beds set aside just for those who needed respiratory support. Blue Ridge Rehab Center also offered wound care, palliative care, IV therapy, and a dedicated program for memory care, with staff trained to help those with Alzheimer's and dementia. The approach always emphasized personal attention by delivering therapy and support designed for each resident's health situation.
Besides medical care, daily activities got managed by a Certified Activity Manager to help residents stay active, social, and involved. The facility offered organized social experiences, had modern amenities, spacious common rooms, and maintained inviting outdoor areas where people could spend time when the weather allowed. The staff, all English-speaking, included many highly trained professionals who worked together in teams to keep up with every resident's changing needs. Blue Ridge Rehab Center accepted Medicare and Medicaid, handled both inpatient and outpatient stays, and kept up with complete interdisciplinary teams making sure residents could reach their best health and comfort possible.
