Azalea Health & Rehab Center in Wilmington, NC operates as a skilled nursing facility. Residents receive 24-hour licensed nursing oversight, routine physician visits, medication administration, wound care management, IV therapy, and post-surgical monitoring. The center is equipped to support individuals recovering from strokes, joint replacements, cardiac episodes, or complex medical conditions that require continuous assessment and rapid response to changes in health status.
Beyond the core medical services, the community offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy delivered in an on-site rehabilitation gym, along with respiratory therapy and pain management programs. Staff members assist with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and mobility, and provide disease-specific education for diabetes, COPD, or heart failure. Social workers handle care planning, family conferences, discharge coordination, respite stays, and hospice collaboration for residents who need those services.
Accommodation options include private and shared rooms furnished with adjustable beds, televisions, Wi-Fi access, and emergency call systems; select rooms add in-room showers and individual climate controls. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and maintenance are provided on a regular schedule, and small pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Not all accommodations have all the listed features, so prospective residents and families should verify specific room details during a tour.
Meals are prepared on site under the supervision of a registered dietitian, with menus tailored to meet regular, diabetic, cardiac, renal, and texture-modified diet requirements. Residents can eat in the communal dining room or request tray service in their rooms if medical needs require it. Between meals, snacks and beverages are available to support proper hydration and nutrition, and staff document intake to track dietary compliance and any needed adjustments.
