Quaboag Rehabilitation & Skilled Care Facility sits under the wing of Ascentria Care Alliance and works as a non-profit corporation, offering skilled nursing, long-term care, and rehabilitation. The building holds 166 certified beds and sees about 140 residents each day, so it's a pretty busy place. Nurses stick around more than at other places, with a nurse turnover rate of 35.4%, lower than the state's average of 43.1%. Nurses here spend about 4.2 hours per resident each day, which is more time than most places in the state.
Inspection reports have shown eight total deficiencies, including two related to infections and some about resident rights and care planning. They're part of groups like the Massachusetts Senior Care Association and work with the Massachusetts Healthcare Safety and Quality Consortium, following programs like falls prevention and the Reducing Off-Label Use of Antipsychotics initiative. They put attention toward care transitions and end of life care, so they help residents through a range of health needs.
Highly skilled staff are on hand, like nurses, licensed medical practitioners, certified nursing assistants, and physical therapists. They give help with daily needs, offer medication management, medical supervision, and round-the-clock care. Mobility help's on hand, and they can arrange or provide rides to doctor visits.
Residents get meals prepared for them, plus housekeeping and clean sheets. Accommodations include private suites, shared rooms, private bathrooms, and rooms come fully furnished, with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, cable, and phone service. The facility sets up a safe environment with secured areas to prevent wandering, and a 24-hour call system for emergencies. People needing more help have special care engagement programs, and everyone gets opportunities to join daily activities. Quaboag does its work quietly, aiming to keep residents as comfortable and cared for as possible while recognizing there are areas that still need work.
