Parkview Health & Rehab Center in Chapel Hill operates as a nursing-home provider, delivering around-the-clock skilled nursing services for residents who need ongoing medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on duty 24 hours a day to handle medication administration, IV therapy, wound management, tracheostomy care, and post-operative recovery. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists are available onsite to carry out physician-ordered rehabilitation programs aimed at restoring mobility and daily function after illness, injury, or surgery.
Beyond direct medical treatment, the center supports residents with care coordination and ancillary health services. Social workers assist with discharge planning and connect families to community resources, while on-call physicians and specialty practitioners—such as podiatrists and dentists—visit the facility on a scheduled basis. The staff arranges transportation to outside medical appointments, manages insurance authorizations, and maintains electronic health records so that each resident’s care plan is current and accessible to the interdisciplinary team.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms equipped with basic furnishings, individual climate controls, and accessible bathrooms; some rooms feature in-room showers, while others rely on nearby shared bathing suites. Each room has an emergency call system, and housekeeping and personal laundry services are provided at routine intervals. Wi-Fi, cable television, and telephone service are available, though not every room is pre-wired for all three, so residents and families should confirm specific features during a tour.
Meals are prepared in an onsite kitchen under the supervision of a registered dietitian who tailors menus to physician-ordered diets such as cardiac, diabetic, or pureed textures. Residents receive three meals daily in a central dining room that accommodates wheelchairs and walkers, with staff assistance available for those who need help eating. Snacks and hydration stations are offered between meals, and meal delivery to the resident’s room can be arranged when a medical condition or therapy schedule makes communal dining impractical. Not every room has space for a full dining tray table, so families may wish to ask about portable options if in-room service will be needed frequently.
