Fox River Rehab & Healthcare in Elgin, IL operates as a skilled nursing facility that delivers 24-hour medical oversight. Residents receive comprehensive clinical services that encompass post-acute rehabilitation, chronic disease management, wound care, IV therapy, pain control, and tracheostomy support. Care is directed by an on-site medical director and carried out by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, and a full rehabilitation team offering physical, occupational, and speech therapies. Individualized care plans guide treatment goals and are reviewed regularly with attending physicians and family members.
The facility backs its core nursing services with on-site diagnostics, pharmacy consultation, and regular physician and nurse-practitioner rounds. Electronic health records streamline medication administration and reduce errors, while fall-prevention protocols and an emergency call system promote resident safety. Staff arrange transportation for dialysis and specialty appointments and coordinate transfers with local hospitals when higher-level care is required. Social services, discharge planning, and family education are provided to support continuity of care before and after a resident’s stay.
Accommodations consist of both private and semi-private rooms furnished with adjustable beds, bedside storage, and television service. Some rooms include en-suite bathrooms, individual climate controls, and Wi-Fi, while others share these features, so it is important to confirm room details during a tour. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and maintenance services are handled by on-site staff. Residents also have access to common lounges, an activities room, and outdoor seating areas for visits and recreation.
Meals are prepared in the facility’s kitchen under the supervision of a registered dietitian, with three daily meals built around residents’ clinical needs and personal preferences. Therapeutic diets—including diabetic, renal, cardiac, mechanical-soft, and puree—are available without additional charge, and snacks are offered between meals. Most residents dine in a communal setting that encourages social interaction, but tray service is provided in rooms when medical circumstances require it. Menu reviews are conducted routinely to ensure that the food program stays responsive to resident feedback and nutritional guidelines.
