Vanderman Place is licensed as a skilled nursing facility, providing 24-hour nursing oversight for residents who need continuous medical attention. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants work in coordinated shifts to handle medication administration, injections, IV therapy, wound care, and monitoring of chronic conditions such as diabetes, COPD, and cardiac disease. Post-acute rehabilitation services are available on-site, with physical, occupational, and speech therapists helping residents regain mobility and function after surgery, illness, or injury. The facility also offers short-term respite stays and hospice support, allowing families to rely on professional staff during periods of heightened medical need.
Beyond direct skilled nursing, Vanderman Place develops individualized care plans that are reviewed regularly with physicians and families to adjust goals and interventions. A full-time social worker assists with discharge planning and connections to community resources, while registered dietitians tailor therapeutic diets for residents with renal issues, dysphagia, or other specialized nutritional requirements. On-site laboratory and diagnostic services reduce the need for outside appointments, and a restorative nursing program focuses on fall prevention and maintenance of strength between formal therapy sessions. Vaccination clinics, infection control protocols, and routine health screenings add a further layer of preventive care.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and each includes basic furnishings, call systems, and access to common bathrooms; some rooms feature views of landscaped outdoor areas, but not every accommodation includes the same layout or amenities. Residents have access to patios and walking paths that provide fresh air and space for family visits, and staff can arrange assistive devices for those who need support navigating these outdoor areas.
Dining takes place in a central dining room where three nutritionally balanced meals are served daily, with snacks offered between meals. Menus are overseen by a dietitian, and the kitchen can prepare mechanical soft, pureed, low-sodium, or other physician-ordered diets. Residents who prefer to eat in their rooms may request tray service, and staff are available to assist with feeding when necessary to ensure adequate intake and hydration.
For recreation and day-to-day convenience, Vanderman Place maintains a library and computer lounge where residents can read, access the internet, and communicate with family members. Scheduled activities such as discussion groups, computer tutorials, and movie viewings take place in this space, providing both cognitive stimulation and social interaction within the facility.
