Teays Valley Center sits inside a Continuing Care Retirement Community in Hurricane, West Virginia, and offers different levels of care so folks can have medical support as their needs change without leaving the community, and the staff works closely with healthcare providers so residents get the right care for their situation, whether they need help with medicines, bathing, dressing, getting around, or specialized care after a hospital stay, surgery, or illness, as well as long-term or short-term care, or even respite, neurological, palliative, or hospice care, and it's one of those nursing homes where the main goal's to help people recover or live as comfortably as possible.
There're 124 licensed and certified beds here, and in June 2025, 7 beds look to be available, and the center takes Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay options, making it more open to different financial needs. The building's for-profit and gets regular health and life safety inspections to make sure it follows the rules, and Cassidy Duffer acts as the administrator, leading a team that includes CNAs, activity assistants, case managers, and skilled nurses who all focus on personalized care plans.
Residents have private and semi-private rooms, emergency alert systems, a telephone in their rooms, and internet and cable TV, which comes in handy for those who want to keep up with news or stay in touch, and people can enjoy a garden, walking paths, a dining room, arts room, movie nights, bingo, community-sponsored activities, and visits from cats who add comfort to the place.
The center provides move-in help, meal service with options for special diets, and if the food temperature or quality needs fixing, folks are encouraged to let staff know, as the staff aims to address concerns. Housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, transportation, parking for guests, barber and salon services help residents with day-to-day life. The staff goes out of their way to offer better blankets, pillows, and wheelchairs to keep everyone comfortable, and they hope everyone feels treated like family, not made to feel bad.
Specialized care's available, like IV therapy, wound and pain management, colostomy care, and case management and discharge planning, plus therapies like physical, occupational, and speech therapy for those needing to recover from a joint replacement, injury, or amputation. For folks with dementia, the staff offers extra support, and visitors including family have access anytime, which helps people stay connected. Teays Valley Center's an AHCA Silver Quality Award winner and a We Honor Veterans partner, and while there's no flashy name for its care or programs, it does focus on straightforward, accountable care and offers a wide mix of health, social, cultural, religious, and educational activities for people looking for help in different stages of aging or recovery.
