Heritage Health–Bloomington is licensed as a nursing-home provider, offering 24-hour skilled nursing care for individuals who need ongoing medical supervision. Registered nurses and certified nursing assistants monitor vital signs, manage complex medication schedules, and carry out physician-ordered treatments such as IV therapy, wound care, and post-surgical rehabilitation. Short-term stays for recovery after hospitalization are available alongside long-term residency, giving families flexibility when medical needs change. On-site rehabilitation therapists deliver physical, occupational, and speech therapy tailored to each resident’s care plan, helping them regain or maintain functional abilities.
Additional clinical services support residents whose conditions require specialized attention. The facility coordinates routine physician visits, lab work, imaging referrals, and pharmacy services to reduce off-site appointments. A respiratory care program is in place for residents with chronic pulmonary issues, and staff can arrange hospice or palliative care when appropriate. Fall-prevention protocols, a secure medication storage system, and electronic health records aim to keep care consistent and safe. An on-call medical director collaborates with nursing staff to review care plans and address emergent concerns promptly, ensuring that residents receive timely interventions.
Accommodations at Heritage Health–Bloomington include a mix of private and semiprivate rooms, each equipped with basic furnishings, emergency call systems, and accessible bathrooms; a limited number also offer in-room climate controls and cable television. Housekeeping and laundry services are handled by staff, while maintenance teams address routine repairs. Residents may personalize their living spaces with approved items, and small pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Not all accommodations have all the features mentioned, so availability varies by room type and occupancy levels.
Meals are prepared on site under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus designed to meet general nutritional guidelines and physician-ordered therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or pureed options. Three daily meals are served in a communal dining room that offers table-side assistance for residents who need help with eating, and snacks are stocked throughout the day. Residents with mobility limitations can receive tray service in their rooms, while those on rehabilitation programs may have calorie-specific meal plans to support recovery. Seasonal menu updates, holiday meals, and occasional themed dishes provide variety, but certain options may not be available to every resident depending on dietary restrictions and medical orders.
