Marywood Health Center, which sits in a friendly neighborhood with parks, pharmacies, restaurants, places of worship, and hospitals close by, offers skilled nursing care for people who need extra help after illness, surgeries, or hospital stays, so family members or residents themselves are never too far from clinics or community amenities, and transportation options are there for doctor's appointments or errands, which makes getting around much easier, especially as you get older or if you don't want to travel far. The community can serve up to 49 residents, and it provides private suites or shared rooms, all fully furnished, with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, telephones, air conditioning, internet, and cable, which gives everyone a choice between simple comfort and more space if that's what suits your style or budget, and pets are welcome, which often makes a place feel more like home.
Marywood Health Center covers basic and advanced care needs like help with bathing, dressing, getting in and out of bed or chairs, managing medications, and supervision day and night, which means someone is always there if help is needed, so safety is never overlooked, and a 24-hour call system's in every room for peace of mind. The nursing staff, along with the Wellness Director, Racheal Romero, provides skilled help for residents living with conditions like diabetes, offering meals that match special diets, and supports those who need rehabilitation after surgeries or injury, whether it's physical therapy or other rehabilitation services. Residents with memory conditions or medical disabilities receive careful attention, and there's a highly secure environment for anyone at risk of wandering, which makes it easier for families to worry less.
Meals are prepared with an eye on health needs and dietary restrictions like diabetes, and there's restaurant-style dining with organic choices, so mealtimes can feel like a small event, and the kitchen staff manages meals if someone has specific food allergies or special requests. Housekeeping and linen service is always included, and each apartment comes with Wi-Fi and phone service, which means people can keep in touch with family or just watch TV. The center holds daily scheduled activities, as well as things run by the residents, so life rarely feels boring-whether it's movie nights, arts, social events, or time spent in the small library or walking among the gardens, especially the sacred outdoor spots like the Prairie Habitat, the grotto for prayer, or the St. Francis Sculpture Garden, which the community has developed and nurtured over the years.
Marywood Health Center also focuses on mental wellness and spiritual support, offering retreats, workshops, a spiritual formation center, and programs like Foundations in Spirituality Courses and Spiritual Director Practicums, for anyone who wants spiritual guidance or prayerful reflection, and the staff tries to pay attention to emotional well-being, not just physical health. Residents benefit from round-the-clock care, with a team who knows how to handle healthcare needs and emergencies, plus extra services like transportation to appointments, and move-in help when it's time to settle in.
Community-sponsored activities and resident-run events help keep people connected, and with amenities such as a beauty salon, walking paths, garden, arts room, and access to a chapel, everyday life is full without feeling forced. Marywood Health Center's managed by Trinity Senior Services Management, is part of a larger Continuing Care Retirement Community, and follows a not-for-profit model, and through all the years, the staff have focused on compassionate, restorative care, welcoming families, and making sure everyone who moves in gets support for both body and spirit.
