Crestwood Health and Rehab, also called Crestwood Convalescent Center, sits at 1116 E Lauridsen Boulevard in Port Angeles, Washington, close to Olympic National Park and the Olympic Medical Center, and you'll find it's part of a larger continuing care retirement community, so if someone's needs change, they can still stay in the same community and move between care levels without leaving familiar surroundings, which can mean a lot for peace of mind, and while there's not much official information out there, Crestwood offers nursing care, assisted living, and a focus on both long-term skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation for people recovering from things like surgery, stroke, or other serious health issues, and the team there has nurses, therapists, physicians, and a medical director all working together, with 24-hour supervision and nursing care available to help with medication, bathing, dressing, and transfers. There are 101 certified beds and about a third are open as of June 2025, and Crestwood takes both Medicare and Medicaid, which can help families plan, and even though there's no resident or family council, they do try to support families in other ways. The facility is owned by a for-profit Limited Liability Company and gets regular inspections with quality ratings; they've scored a "C" in long-term care and a "B-minus" in short-term care, with stronger nurse quality marks at "B+," and the staff has registered hours tracked for nurses, therapists, and other medical workers, so care levels are reviewed and measured over time for safety and performance.
People at Crestwood can stay in a studio, semi-private, or companion room, and each has private bathrooms, air conditioning, cable TV, furnished options, kitchenettes, phones, and Wi-Fi. The community offers lots of helpful services like housekeeping, laundry, move-in support, and a concierge, and there's scheduled transportation for outings or doctor's visits, as well as plenty of parking. Dining is served in a restaurant-style community room and they accommodate special diets, including for those living with diabetes or food allergies. Outdoor spaces include gardens, walking paths, and common areas, and indoor spaces cover a fitness room, a movie theater, a library, and an arts room. There's also a salon on-site and outdoor programs planned by the staff. Daily life features plenty to do, with exercise classes, sports, cooking, games, Bible study, worship, arts and crafts, movie nights, music, pet therapy, reminiscence activities, and events run by both the community and residents themselves. The life enrichment program aims to cover physical, social, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs.
Crestwood offers physical, speech, and occupational therapy with a large therapy center using modern equipment, and specialized care covers stroke recovery, wound care, palliative care, cardiac and respiratory therapies, post-surgical recovery, IV antibiotics, and more, with an on-site podiatrist for foot care needs and help for people with cancer or complex chronic conditions. Residents get 12-16 hours of direct nursing plus a 24-hour call system for assistance and monitoring. Crestwood supports both post-acute and outpatient rehab, so people don't have to move far after a hospital stay, and therapy staff prepare custom plans to meet each person's recovery and well-being goals, with games, outings, and wellness activities for life balance. There's a feeling of caring and comfort, the team focuses on making the place family-friendly and professional, and while Crestwood's not perfect or fancy, it aims to deliver safe care, clear communication, and steady support to its residents who need rehabilitation or long-term nursing, making daily life as comfortable as possible for folks in and around Port Angeles.
