Cottonwood Inn Rehab and Extended Care Center delivers nursing-home level support with an emphasis on skilled medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on duty around the clock to handle medication administration, IV therapies, wound management and post-operative monitoring. The on-site rehabilitation suite provides structured physical therapy designed to restore strength and mobility after surgery, injury or illness; therapists work directly with physicians to set individualized treatment goals and update care plans as progress is recorded.
Beyond direct clinical services, the staff helps residents with bathing, dressing, transfers and continence care, adjusting the level of assistance as needs change. Regular assessments track vital signs and chronic conditions, and care coordinators arrange lab work, imaging or specialist visits when ordered by a physician. The community’s emergency call system connects residents to licensed personnel in seconds, and family members receive prompt updates following any significant change in condition.
Accommodation options include private and semi-private apartments, each equipped with basic furnishings and safety features such as grab bars and emergency pull cords. Select apartments offer access to outdoor areas, while others are situated near the library and computer lounge for residents who prefer indoor pursuits. An outdoor garden allows for supervised walks or quiet seating when weather permits. Because floor plans vary, not every apartment contains every feature mentioned.
Dining services supply three meals a day along with snacks, all prepared to meet recommended nutritional guidelines for older adults. A registered dietitian reviews menus to accommodate special diets such as diabetic, low-sodium or pureed textures. Staff members provide assistance for residents who need help cutting food or who require adaptive utensils, ensuring that each person receives adequate nutrition and hydration.
The shared activity center hosts daily programs that range from bingo games to organized clubs and community groups, giving residents structured opportunities for exercise, conversation and mental stimulation. Transportation and staff coordination help residents attend off-site events when scheduled community outings align with club interests.
