Kindred Transitional Care and Rehabilitation - Colonial, also called The Bay At Colonial Manor Health And Rehabilitation LLC, sits in Wausau, Wisconsin, and offers care for folks who need help after hospital stays or long-term health issues, and it's got 150 beds-usually about 40% full-and serves people with both short and long-term medical needs. The place's been Medicare and Medicaid certified for almost four decades, has a history stretching back to 1987 with regular quality checks, and belongs to a wider network of senior care providers. You find private and semi-private rooms, staff on duty round the clock, therapists and nurses working with each resident's own doctor, and they craft a care plan suited to the person's situation, whether it's help with recovering from illness or support in daily life.
They've got programs to boost mobility and independence, with therapy, skilled nursing, and personal care, and people can get help managing medicines, meals, and personal needs. There's support for people with Alzheimer's and dementia-including 24-hour memory care, activities meant to help memory, and environments tailored for such needs-and both independent living and assisted living are options for folks at different stages of needing help, so some may come after surgery and go back home, while others stay long term. Residents can enjoy things that make recovery easier, such as comfortable rooms, family visits, board and care homes for smaller groups, and hospice when needed.
Kindred Transitional Care and Rehabilitation - Colonial has earned its certifications and follows state and federal rules, with two fines in recent years and a payment denial, which shows not everything runs perfectly, but it does have oversight and regular reviews. The staff includes nurses, aides, social workers, nutritionists, and therapy specialists, all working together to help each resident reach their best possible level of health. Folks can bring pets, but smoking isn't allowed in indoor areas. For those who need help getting to medical appointments or running errands, there's complimentary transportation. Families can talk to family advisors for guidance, and the director and care team keep an eye on daily operations. Residents can expect basic comforts, safety, and options for specialized care, especially during times of recovery or transition, with a goal of helping people regain strength and maintain dignity in a place that feels like home for as long as they need it.
