Grand Boulevard Health And Rehabilitation Center sits right beside Sacred Heart Hospital on the Emerald Coast and offers care for seniors who need short-term rehabilitation, assisted living, or long-term care, so folks find everything from skilled nursing to memory care in one place, and there's a special program for people managing Alzheimer's disease or dementia that makes sure their changing needs are met every day. This community's got outdoor courtyards where residents take in the fresh air or join group activities and the living areas look pleasant, thanks to recent renovations that've made the rooms larger and more comfortable while still feeling homelike, and looking out at nice, peaceful views. There are big common spaces set up to help residents socialize, hold events, or just enjoy some quiet time and you'll find activities running every day through the Life Enrichment program, with things ranging from cards and games to group exercise and quiet reading, so staying active and connected is always possible if someone wants it.
The medical staff here includes physicians, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, and a nurse practitioner available 24 hours, with therapists in physical, occupational, and speech therapy serving both post-surgery rehab and folks with longer-term needs, and for those needing more complex help, they've got care for heart attack and stroke recovery, joint replacement, COPD, and tracheotomy, plus certified IV therapy and wound care for healing and comfort. The center offers both hospice and palliative care and has support for mental illness and psychological needs, too, with services like restorative nursing and pain management. If someone only needs care for a little while, there's respite options, or families can turn to them for long-term support, and they look after folks' spiritual and emotional sides, too, with connections to religious services nearby and regular pet therapy for a bit of joy.
Residents find their meals, snacks, and special diets taken care of, with housekeeping, laundry, wheelchair access, and special bathing facilities all included, so daily living gets easier to manage, and there's always help with bathing, dressing, eating, or getting around when residents need it. The place is set up for comfort and convenience, with telephones in rooms, Wi-Fi, social and entertainment options, transportation, and personalized grooming like hair care, which really helps folks feel settled in. The staff speaks English and Spanish, which opens communication for more families, and the staff won a Silver National Quality Award from the American Health Care Association, which gives some extra peace of mind. Grand Boulevard Health And Rehabilitation Center takes Medicare, Medicaid, military and VA benefits, private insurance, cash, and checks, so families have different ways to cover care. The facility has 97 beds for skilled nursing, and residents or families can take a virtual tour with 360-degree views before moving in, so they get a good idea what daily life looks like in the center.
