Apple Rehab Watch Hill sits on Watch Hill Road in Westerly, Rhode Island, and runs as a skilled nursing facility offering short-term rehab, long-term care, and memory care. The community accepts both Medicaid and Medicare for its financial services, so families who need help with costs can find support here. Residents get assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving around the facility, and the care staff includes qualified nurses, licensed medical professionals, nursing assistants, and physical therapists, and they stay on duty for up to 16 hours every day, with a 24-hour call system in place to help keep everyone safe and comfortable. The building is designed with protected areas and security features to prevent wandering or accidents, especially for residents with memory care needs.
The rooms come furnished and include private bathrooms, cable TV, a kitchenette, a phone, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi or fast internet, so folks can settle in with most things they might need. Other basic needs like housekeeping, laundry, and even move-in coordination are handled by the team, aiming to take a bit of the worry away from new arrivals and their families. There's restaurant-style dining in a dedicated room, with a professional chef and menus for those who have allergies or special diets, including options for diabetes.
There's a good list of activities and amenities around the community, with things like walking paths, gardens, outdoor programs, daily scheduled events, music, arts and crafts, a movie theater, a game room, a library, and a fitness room. You'll also find a wellness room with a spa or sauna and group wellness programs for anyone wanting to keep active. Transportation and parking options are managed by the facility, and residents can join both community-sponsored and resident-run activities, and staff try to get families involved too.
Rehabilitation services cover more than just basic care, and there are unique programs like LSVT and CPI for specialized needs, all aimed at supporting folks to regain skills and independence after a health event. The care and attention is centered on each person and adjusted to fit what they need, and the staff make an effort to treat residents like family- offering support and encouragement as they go about their day.
