Royal At Wayland Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Wayland, MA delivers round-the-clock skilled nursing care. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants are onsite 24/7 to handle complex medical needs, medication administration, post-surgical recovery, wound management, IV therapy, and pain control. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists run goal-oriented rehabilitation programs designed to help residents regain strength and function after illness or injury. The staff also provides cardiac, pulmonary, and orthopedic rehabilitation services, as well as palliative and hospice support for residents who require advanced symptom management.
Beyond direct medical treatment, the center follows individualized care plans developed by an interdisciplinary team that includes attending physicians, therapists, dietitians, and social workers. Regular care conferences keep families informed, and electronic health records promote continuity of care. The facility coordinates laboratory work, imaging, specialist consultations, and transportation to off-site appointments when needed. Infection-control protocols and an established emergency preparedness plan are in place to safeguard residents, while social services staff help with discharge planning and community resource referrals once a resident’s goals have been met.
The accommodations at this assisted-living facility include both private and semiprivate rooms equipped with safety-oriented bathrooms, an emergency call system, and basic furnishings. Select rooms feature individually controlled heating and cooling, in-room television service, and Wi-Fi access; however, not every room has every feature. Housekeeping and personal laundry services are provided on a regular schedule, and residents can spend time in shared lounges, activity spaces, or a secure outdoor courtyard.
Dining services aim to balance nutrition with individual preference. Three meals a day are prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus that accommodate therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, renal, and mechanically altered textures. Meals are usually served in a communal dining room to encourage social interaction, though tray service is available for residents who need to eat in their rooms. Between-meal snacks and beverages help staff monitor hydration and caloric intake, and menu selections rotate to incorporate seasonal offerings and resident feedback.
