Dumont Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing Care operates as a skilled nursing home, admitting both long-term residents and individuals who need short-term or post-hospital care. Licensed nurses are on duty around the clock, and attending physicians direct treatment plans that can include daily physical therapy for strength, balance, and mobility recovery. The center also accepts respite stays, giving family caregivers a break while ensuring the temporary resident receives professional monitoring, medication management, and any clinically indicated therapies.
Additional clinical supports include on-site rehabilitative gyms, routine wound care, and coordination with outside specialists such as podiatrists, dentists, and optometrists who visit the facility on a scheduled basis. Care plans are reviewed regularly by an interdisciplinary team so that goals remain current with each resident’s changing needs. Social workers help arrange discharge planning or community resources when residents are ready to return home or move to another setting, ensuring continuity of care.
Private and semiprivate rooms are available, and some are equipped with complimentary Wi-Fi while others have wired internet access only; Wi-Fi coverage is offered in common areas as well. Many rooms look out onto landscaped outdoor areas where residents can sit with visitors or participate in supervised activities, but not every accommodation has direct patio or garden access. Housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are included.
Meals are prepared on-site in accordance with nutritional guidelines set by registered dietitians. Residents receive three meals a day with the option for physician-ordered therapeutic diets such as low-sodium or diabetic menus. Staff assist anyone who needs help with eating, and alternative entrée choices are available at each meal to respect personal preferences or cultural needs.
An activity center anchors the community’s daily programming, which ranges from arts and crafts sessions to group exercise classes that form part of broader health and wellness programs. A library and computer lounge offers internet access and quiet space for reading or video calls, while clubs and resident-run committees plan social, educational, and recreational events. These structured options give residents multiple ways to remain cognitively engaged and socially connected without leaving the premises.
