Cambridge Rehab & Nursing

Cambridge Rehab & Nursing sits at 9615 N Knox Avenue in Skokie and offers different kinds of care for seniors who need help, whether for a short recovery or a longer stay, and they help folks with things like wound care, rehab after a stroke, and therapy for breathing or the heart, and they've got skilled nurses there all day and night. The staff covers a lot, with therapists, nurse aides, and medical directors, and there's a separate memory care unit for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia where there's always someone around and they have safety in mind, plus they have memory programs during the day for those who need extra support. Cambridge Nursing & Rehab Center also gives care for people coming home from the hospital, folks needing palliative and hospice care, and those needing pain management. They'll help with things most people take for granted, like bathing, meals, taking medicines, house cleaning, and getting to doctor visits, and they do all this in a way that tries to keep people as independent as possible. Meals are fixed for different diets, including vegetarian and kosher, and the rooms and showers are ready for wheelchairs, and there are indoor common areas where residents can gather when they want. For people needing affordable housing, they've got some lower-cost choices, and they'll also partner with the VA to care for veterans. Medical transportation is available when needed, and there's optional parking for those who drive. Folks can stay for a short time if family members need a break, and there's help for high medical needs, including those who can't get out of bed or need incontinence care. Besides inpatient rehab, they help with outpatient rehab, speech or occupational therapy, and they've got aides ready to give extra help. They have a record of inspections and keep track of quality to make sure things run right, and visitors can get tours to see how everything works, talk to residents and staff, and decide if it feels right for them.
