Avante At Melbourne Inc is licensed as a nursing home and provides 24-hour skilled nursing care for residents who require ongoing medical oversight. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants collaborate to manage post-acute recovery, chronic condition monitoring, and medication administration. On-site rehabilitation services, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, support residents working to regain or maintain functional abilities under physician direction.
In addition to standard nursing services, the facility coordinates laboratory work, IV therapy, wound care, and pain management as ordered by attending physicians. Care plans are individualized, reviewed regularly, and adjusted according to each resident’s medical status. Staff members handle scheduling of physician visits, transportation to outside specialty appointments when needed, and provide assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and mobility.
Resident rooms are situated within a single-story building that opens onto landscaped grounds, allowing some units easy access to outdoor seating areas. Layouts vary, and not every accommodation includes direct patio access or the same view of the gardens, so prospective residents should confirm specific room features during a tour. Common areas are designed to be easily navigable, with corridors wide enough for mobility devices.
The community provides three nutritionally balanced meals each day, served in a central dining room that offers table service and staff supervision for those who need help eating. Modified diets, such as low-sodium or mechanical-soft options, can be prepared on physician order. Snacks are available between meals, and hydration stations are positioned in common areas.
Residents can take part in organized activities held in the on-site activity center, from arts and crafts workshops to scheduled social outings in the local area. A library and computer lounge gives access to books, periodicals, and internet-connected computers for personal use. Participation in programs is optional, and the activity calendar is updated regularly to reflect resident interest.
