Baptist Health Nursing And Rehabilitation Center in Scotia provides 24-hour skilled nursing care designed for individuals who need ongoing medical attention. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on duty around the clock to handle post-acute recovery, chronic illness management, and complex medication regimens. Residents have on-site access to rehabilitative therapies such as physical, occupational, and speech therapy, each coordinated with the attending physician to support recovery goals and maintain functional abilities. Wound care, intravenous therapies, and pain management programs are available as clinically indicated, and a medical director oversees care plans to keep them aligned with current best practices.
Beyond the core clinical services, the center offers assistance with activities of daily living, social services support, and on-site lab and diagnostic coordination to reduce the need for outside appointments. Care teams monitor nutritional status, hydration, and vital signs, adjusting care plans promptly if a resident’s condition changes. Licensed social workers help with discharge planning and connect families to community resources. Structured activity programming, spiritual support, and scheduled transportation to off-site medical appointments round out the care features aimed at supporting both health and quality of life.
Accommodations include a mix of private and semiprivate rooms, each equipped with basic furnishings, an emergency call system, and climate control. Outdoor areas give residents space for fresh air and supervised walks, although not every room has direct access to these spaces. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided, and maintenance teams handle routine repairs. Some rooms may feature additional storage or seating, but these options vary by location within the building.
Dining services supply three daily meals prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus that account for therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical-soft. Meals are served in a communal dining room where staff can assist residents who need help with eating. For those whose medical condition requires it, meal trays can be delivered to the room. Snacks and hydration stations are available between meals, and substitutions are offered to accommodate personal preferences and physician-ordered restrictions.
