Emory L Bennett Memorial Veterans Nursing Home in Daytona Beach is structured as a skilled nursing facility, giving residents access to 24-hour licensed nursing oversight, medication management, and routine monitoring of chronic conditions. The community’s staffing pattern is designed to meet nursing-home standards, offering on-site clinical support that addresses rehabilitation needs, wound care, and post-acute recovery whenever required.
Beyond core nursing services, the home coordinates directly with outside physicians, pharmacies, and specialists so resident treatment plans stay current during changes in health status. Short-term respite stays are accepted, providing caregivers with temporary relief while ensuring veterans receive the same level of clinical attention as long-term residents.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms, and many open onto secure outdoor areas where residents can get fresh air or participate in scheduled activities. Some rooms feature patio access or garden views, but these options are limited, so availability depends on the specific unit selected.
Meals are prepared on site three times daily, and the kitchen is equipped to serve ethnic menu options that reflect residents’ cultural preferences and medically prescribed diets. Adaptive utensils and assistance with eating are supplied when needed to maintain adequate nutrition.
Residents have access to a library and computer lounge that supports recreational reading, online communication with family, and basic internet use for personal tasks.
