Rennes Health and Rehab Center - Rhinelander sits over on Navajo Street with a warm, home-like feeling that you can tell folks have worked hard to maintain, and it's got 95 beds for folks needing short-term rehab and long-term care. The center offers physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy-both for people who stay there and for those who come in just for therapy-so if someone needs help getting back on their feet after surgery, or they need more steady long-term help, they'll find support here. The facility is well-equipped for people living with memory challenges like dementia or Alzheimer's, and has separate areas and staff focused on memory care for residents who need it. The staff pay close attention to individual needs, and that shows both in how they handle therapies and in the dementia-specific care that includes not just medical needs but daily life support, all based on a more holistic approach.
It's a place with a focus on skilled nursing, with licensed nurses on hand 24 hours a day, and they're able to handle advanced care like IV therapies and wound management, as well as hospice and respite care for short stays when families need that support. There are both private and semi-private rooms, even a few suites, and rooms all come with WiFi, cable TV, and telephones, so everyone can stay connected and have some comfort. Residents have access to home-cooked meals with choices, and the kitchen pays attention to dietary needs, plus there's a beautician and barber right on site so folks don't have to worry about those little tasks. They've also got fireplace lounges for relaxing, space for visiting families, religious services, transportation to appointments, and planned outings or activities pretty much every day that help keep people active and social.
Rennes Health and Rehab Center - Rhinelander is part of the family-owned Rennes Group, which is known in the area for a steady level of personal attention and quality care. The staff takes a community-centered approach, blending nursing, therapy, and daily support with amenities aimed at keeping residents safe and comfortable. There are even designated rehab wings and state-of-the-art equipment for therapy, and the therapy team works one-on-one with patients, whether they're coming in for a quick stay after a hospital visit or living there long-term. Discharge planning is thorough, helping people transition back home whenever possible. The care at Rennes really covers the range from people needing just a little help after an illness to those living with serious memory challenges, all in an environment that feels welcoming rather than clinical.
