The Vineyards Healthcare Center

The Vineyards Healthcare Center, soon to be known by this name, offers complex medical care in an 83-bed for-profit facility owned by American River Holdco LLC, with managerial control held by Curtis Rodriguez and Toby Tilford since July 2017, and it's affiliated with Links Healthcare Group. The team provides 24-hour skilled nursing care, covering short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, and a range of healthcare support like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, plus IV therapy and pharmaceutical support, all while focusing on understanding each resident's unique health needs. Residents get help with dressing, grooming, bathing, toileting, and can rely on personal care assistants, transportation services, and discharge planning as needed. The nurse turnover rate is 31.8%, which is lower than the state average, but the staff gives 4.03 nursing hours per resident per day, which is shy of the state's average. State inspections have found issues with infection control, food safety, and life support protocols, though the facility does maintain policies and standards for emergencies, including CPR, and food services with attention to nutrition and safety. There are basic safety features like sprinkler systems, and the building is licensed, certified, and inspected. The rooms offer cable TV, kitchens or kitchenettes, housekeeping, maintenance, and accessibility features for those who need extra help. You can find dining areas, social activities, a rehab gym, education programs, arts and crafts, laundry, guest parking, Wi-Fi, a game and activities room, a fitness center, and a salon/barbershop. Semi-private rooms run $7,000 to $9,000 a month, with private rooms costing $8,000 to $12,000 each month. There's a personalized approach from the nursing team and there are tours, both in-person and virtual, if one wants to see the place. The Vineyards Healthcare Center offers care for elders who need skilled nursing or medical care, but anyone interested can ask for consultations and find information about healthcare services, insurance options, waiting lists, and available amenities, and while the staff aims to help each resident live well and find some joy, some state inspection reports show that improvement is still needed in a few health and safety areas.
