Caring Family Nursing And Rehabilitation Center in Far Rockaway, NY provides traditional nursing-home services designed for residents who require ongoing medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on duty around the clock to administer medications, monitor vital signs, and coordinate care with attending physicians. The community follows a Levels of Care model, which means that residents receive individualized care plans that can be adjusted as conditions change, from short-term post-hospital rehabilitation to long-term skilled nursing support.
Beyond direct medical interventions, the center offers a range of therapeutic and support services intended to help residents maintain or regain function. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work onsite, and wound management, IV therapy, and pain management programs are available when ordered by a physician. Social services staff help arrange follow-up appointments, transportation to specialist visits, and discharge planning for those expected to return home. A secure environment with routine safety checks and fall-prevention protocols is maintained to reduce health risks.
Resident accommodations include both private and shared rooms, each with basic furnishings, emergency call systems, and access to common areas. Some rooms offer views of the landscaped outdoor areas or direct patio access, but not all accommodations include these features. The grounds themselves provide residents with a place for fresh air and supervised outdoor activities when weather permits, and seating areas are arranged to support mobility devices and staff supervision.
Meals are prepared onsite and served three times a day in a communal dining room, with snacks available between meals. A registered dietitian oversees menus to ensure they meet nutritional guidelines and accommodate physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical soft. The Activity Center doubles as a venue for special dining events, food-related programs, and nutrition education sessions. Residents who are unable to dine in the main room receive tray service in their rooms, and adaptive utensils are supplied when needed.
