Carleton Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center

Carleton Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center sits in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, about 30 miles from Corning, and offers care for seniors who need different levels of support, like assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, or help after a hospital stay, and you'll find 24-hour supervision, a round-the-clock call system, and staff ready to help with medication, bathing, dressing, and moving from one place to another. The nursing home serves people who need long-term care or short-term rehab and is set up with furnished private suites, shared rooms, and private bathrooms, along with things like air conditioning, cable, WiFi, telephone service, and weekly housekeeping and linen services, all to keep everyone comfortable. Residents get meals in a dining room with restaurant-style service and can get food suited for allergies or diabetes, plus nutritious choices aimed at helping folks stay as healthy as they can be, and the center makes sure folks get transportation to doctor appointments. Those living here can join group activities, go on walking paths, spend time in an arts room, tend to a garden, visit a barber or salon, or watch movie nights, and there's a strong focus on making things safe for people with memory loss, working hard to prevent confusion and wandering. The community aims to build a supportive environment with resident-run activities, encouragement for social time, and common rooms for everyone, and there's help for those who can't walk or move themselves. Carleton is a for-profit, private facility, and it's got 26 certified beds, with some available for new residents as of November 2024, and families using Medicare or Medicaid can apply if eligible. The Center has a 1-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and a community review score of 4 out of 10, which folks might want to keep in mind. People can schedule tours to see if the place feels right, and the staff there will make a plan tailored to what each resident needs, focusing on both ongoing nursing care and helping folks regain strength and well-being after an illness or surgery.
