    Caring staff improved his health

    I'm very pleased with the caring, responsive staff, attentive administration, social workers, nurses, and nurse assistants - they developed a special relationship with him, supported his rehabilitation, and his health improved in a welcoming environment. Their care brought comfort to our family, and I recommend this facility.

    About Wave Crest Health and Rehabilitation Center

    Wave Crest Health And Rehabilitation Center gives seniors and adults skilled nursing care and a mix of rehabilitation services, including help after strokes, brain injuries, hip fractures, and other tough neurological or orthopedic problems, so folks can get either short-term rehab to get back on their feet or stay for long-term care if they need more support. There are inpatient and outpatient rehab options, along with strong physical, occupational, and speech therapy built by in-house therapy teams and managed by onsite doctors and nurse practitioners, while the health care team handles wound care-including certified Wound V.A.C.ยฎ and wound and ostomy nurses-plus dialysis, infusion services, IV antibiotic therapy, memory care, and pain management for people who may need those special treatments. The facility does provide 24-hour skilled nursing and medication management, and the staff also help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and eating-which can be handled for those who aren't able to walk-though the bathrooms don't have handicap bars or special accessibility features, so some people may need extra help getting in and out of the tub or using the toilet. Folks can expect private rooms with their own baths, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, cable, a kitchenette, phone, and some outdoor spaces, so living there can feel homier, and the housekeeping, laundry, and move-in support add extra comfort for residents and families. For meals, everyone gets the option of a dining room, all-day and restaurant-style dining, and there's a chef who can make meals that work for allergies, diabetes, or other food concerns, which means dietary restrictions are respected. The place has a fitness room, library, arts and game rooms, outdoor programs, walking paths, spa, and movie theater, so there are many kinds of activities, plus regular daily and community events, and transportation and parking for outings. The center runs a resident and family council where concerns can get addressed together, though it has a history of elder abuse citations so regulatory compliance doesn't get overlooked, and families may want to ask about those reviews and responses. Wave Crest accepts Medicare, Medicaid, Aetna, Blue Cross, and other major insurances. Staff focus on care that's compassionate and personal, aiming to help each person with their medical, emotional, and mental needs, and provide support at end of life, during respite, or through specialized hospice. The setting falls under federal guidelines for skilled nursing facilities, and meets rules for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, so folks can use those benefits for payment. Bedrock Care consulting services help deliver in-house dialysis and therapy programs, including care for complex medical conditions and specialty services like cardiac, orthopedic surgery, and stroke recovery.

It allows individuals to stay in an assisted living community for a limited time, giving caregivers a break while ensuring residents receive necessary support and assistance with daily activities.
