Putnam Ridge operates as a skilled nursing home in Brewster, NY, delivering around-the-clock licensed nursing oversight for individuals who need a high level of clinical monitoring and hands-on assistance with daily tasks. Residents receive routine assessments, medication management, wound care, and other physician-directed services typical of a long-term nursing setting, supported by certified nursing aides and registered nurses on every shift.
Beyond standard nursing care, the facility maintains an in-house rehabilitation department that offers physical therapy, short-term rehabilitation programs, and structured respite stays. The therapy team works with referring physicians to create goal-oriented treatment plans aimed at restoring mobility and strength after surgery, illness, or injury. Families looking for brief relief from caregiving responsibilities may arrange respite admissions that include the same nursing and therapy services available to long-term residents.
Accommodations at Putnam Ridge resemble traditional assisted-living layouts, with private and semi-private rooms that may feature cable television connections, access to outdoor areas, and views of the surrounding landscape. Not all rooms include every feature, so families should confirm specific room configurations during their tour.
All residents receive three daily meals prepared on site. The dining staff can adjust menus to accommodate physician-ordered diets and common dietary restrictions, and snacks are available between meals for those who need additional caloric support.
Residents have access to an activity center that hosts scheduled arts and crafts sessions, live entertainment, and interest-based clubs and communities. A library and computer lounge provides space for reading, internet access, and informal socializing, offering cognitive stimulation alongside organized programming.
