Cedar Hill Healthcare & Rehabilitation sits on a 9-acre campus at 1136 Adair Avenue in Zanesville, Ohio, just north of Interstate 70, and offers a quiet, calm setting for senior care with a total of 90 certified beds in private and semi-private rooms, averaging about 82 residents each day. The place is part of Certus Healthcare, falls under Zandex Health Care Corporation, and is a for-profit, certified provider approved by Ohio Medicaid, Medicare, and the Veteran's Administration program. Cedar Hill runs a continuing healthcare program, with nurse staffing averaging about 2.85 hours per resident per day, a nurse turnover rate of 43.8%, and a history of inspection reports that note 38 total deficiencies, including 2 related to infection, with regular assessments focused on care quality and compliance over the years.
Residents here can choose from accessible, simple senior apartments for those who are active and independent, while those needing more support can get short- or long-term skilled nursing, 24-hour care, and therapies for a range of health needs, including Alzheimer's, dementia, behavioral health in the Connections neighborhood, as well as care for people with brain injuries, multiple fractures, cardiac and respiratory problems, neurological disorders, Parkinson's, strokes, joint replacements, spinal cord injuries, lymphedema, and balance issues. The medical team includes attending physicians, a medical director, dentists, a podiatrist, and a dietetic technician, all working alongside an administrator, an admissions director, and a director of nursing to manage care routines, assessment procedures, and plans for each resident, making sure to coordinate pre-admission screening and referrals for added services when needed.
The community makes its food with guidance from chefs and meal planners who aim for balanced, quality meals, following rules to buy ingredients from approved places and serve them using professional standards. The staff works hard with social services, dietary supervision, daily activities, housekeeping, and maintenance, always paying attention to policies that protect residents' rights to a safe, clean, and homelike community. Cedar Hill supplies physical, occupational, and speech therapies, as well as specialized programs like functional testing, pulmonary care, and restoration services, and rehabilitation programs help residents recovering from surgery, injury, or illness, while clinicians provide skilled therapy services in a setting designed to limit confusion and wandering for those with memory issues. Cedar Hill has won a Best of Senior Living Award, which speaks to the steady support and care offered across its services, and its residents and their families often note the calm environment and the simple, no-frills approach to long-term care and rehabilitation.
