Holbrook Healthcare Center

Holbrook Healthcare Center sits over on Holbrook Road in Buckhannon, WV and holds up to 120 certified beds, where people get both short-term and long-term care, whether they're recovering from a surgery or settling in for longer stays, and you'll find a team here working with folks on things like physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy every single day, and there's a pretty steady group of healthcare professionals including rehabilitation specialists and therapists helping with stroke recovery, wound care, and even more specialized support like cardiac management or pulmonary management, so there's a lot made about really focusing all care to fit what the individual needs as they recover or just try to live more comfortably day to day, and the place offers private and semi-private rooms with their own restrooms, heating, and air conditioning, which a lot of people appreciate since it helps keep things comfortable and a bit more personal. Folks who stay here tend to have their care plans tailored to what helps them best, whether that's for neurorehabilitation, post-surgical needs, or even ongoing long-term help like Alzheimer's and dementia care, with hospice and palliative programs available too for those who need that extra bit of support. The place has really built its name around offering its services with a compassionate, community-minded approach, keeping focused on emotional and physical well-being, and you'll see that in things like organized games of bingo or community meals and social events, which do make it feel a bit more like home for many residents. The staff works hard to create a safe environment with set policies against abuse, neglect, or theft, and though inspection reports have shown some deficiencies, including those related to infection control, the center continues to be known regionally for its patient-centered care and low staff turnover compared to state averages, which says something about how people are treated here. It's a for-profit, limited liability company, so decisions are weighed with business needs in mind, and management's been run by Richard Odenthal under Health Care Facility Management, LLC since late 2019, and there's always a focus on trying to balance good care with efficiency. With equipment around for therapy and patient use, dining rooms for gathering, and regular activities to help everyone feel included, Holbrook Healthcare Center provides skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and senior living all in one spot, making it a useful option for people needing a mix of both medical and social support as they age or recover.
