Lacamas Creek Post Acute sits at 740 NE Dallas Street in Camas, Washington, and offers care for people who need help every day, with 83 beds available for those needing skilled nursing or more ongoing support, and while some people come here for short-term recovery after a hospital stay, others stay longer because they need daily nursing care like help with bathing, eating, and medicine. The facility looks after people who need things like joint replacement and orthopedic rehab, stroke and cardiac rehabilitation, cancer recovery, wound care, pain management, and even tracheostomy care, and the team can help with physical, occupational, and speech therapy nearly every day, so people working to get back home after illness or surgery have what they need to recover. Daily nursing care is available around the clock, and the healthcare staff includes licensed professionals who build personalized care plans, always trying to understand what each person prefers and what goals they have for their time there, and the facility often works with families to make sure everybody understands the admissions process and insurance coverage. There are a range of other medical services, like respiratory care, intravenous and infusion therapy, renal and digestive disease support, palliative and hospice care, fall prevention, balance programs, bariatric services, nutrition and dietary help, pharmacy, lab, and X-ray services, pulmonary care, and case management.
Many of the rooms are private or semi-private, and recent renovations have made the living spaces and common areas more pleasant and comfortable, with a beautiful garden area outside where people can enjoy fresh air or join an outdoor activity, and the landscaped spaces outside are well maintained. There are also activities, social services, transportation help, and a monthly calendar for things to do, and the therapy rooms see a lot of use from week to week, as therapy and assessment services run six or seven days a week, so people can get stronger or adjust after surgery without going straight home. The staff includes Director of Nursing Olga Orlovskaya, Admissions & Marketing Director McKenzie Boles, and Administrator Andrea Kalinowski, and every team member is committed to providing care that feels personal, safe, and supportive. The facility works with PACS Services, and is one of 38 locations across the Pacific Northwest tied to this group, so the local care teams get extra support and resources.
Lacamas Creek Post Acute is a for-profit skilled nursing facility with a strong focus on compassionate care for people who need either short-term rehab or ongoing nursing support, and the care team puts special effort into helping residents and families feel supported, whether they're facing physical, mental health, or memory care needs, as the staff can address Alzheimer's and other memory conditions.
