Central Island Healthcare

Central Island Healthcare sits in Plainview, New York, and operates as a skilled nursing facility with 202 beds, and they've made sure the place is fully renovated and nicely designed so seniors feel comfortable, and each resident has a primary care physician looking after them, plus a care team with nurses, social workers, case managers, dieticians, and therapists who keep a close eye on everyone's health and daily needs. Folks who need 24-hour skilled nursing care get that care in special units, while others might stay for short-term rehab after surgery or an illness, since they've got a team for short-term rehabilitation that deals with things like cardiac rehabilitation, orthopedic rehabilitation, post-surgical care, respiratory therapy, neuromuscular therapy, IV therapy, along with physical, occupational, and speech therapies, and wound care is something they do for both short and long-term residents. The long-term care program feels active, with services like cardiac care, diabetes care, IV care, neuromuscular care, pain management, nutrition management, respiratory care, stroke care, and restorative nursing, and there's wound care support too, so they'd handle complex needs and changes in health over time. Central Island Healthcare offers specialty programs, including bariatric care for folks who need extra help because of their weight, hospice care for end of life, an Indian program, and wound care programs for tough healing problems. Medical services stay strong because the place is run by physicians, so residents get quick access to hospital specialists and emergency care if it's really needed, and support teams help with planning discharges or temporary respite stays for caregivers who need a break. Residents live with amenities found in skilled nursing settings-dining is taken care of, activities and recreation happen regularly, and there are safety features and support services to help day and night. The whole setup is for people who need help with nursing care, wound care, physical and occupational therapy, whether they're staying for a short recovery or making Central Island their new steady home.
