Avenue At Aurora in Aurora, Ohio operates as a skilled nursing facility offering both short-term rehabilitation and long-term custodial care. Residents have access to 24-hour licensed nursing coverage, on-site physicians, and a full range of clinical services that include intravenous therapy, wound care, post-surgical recovery, cardiac and pulmonary management, and comprehensive medication administration. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists are available seven days a week to help residents regain function and improve mobility, while the staff coordinates closely with hospitals and specialists to maintain continuity of care.
Additional medical support includes individualized care plans developed by an interdisciplinary team, routine assessments to track progress, and on-site laboratory and radiology services arranged as needed. The facility offers diabetic management, pain management, fall prevention programs, and assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and toileting. Social services and discharge planning are integrated into the care model to facilitate smooth transitions, whether a resident returns home or transfers to another setting.
Accommodations consist of a mix of private and semi-private rooms equipped with hospital-grade beds, accessible bathrooms, and in-room emergency call systems where installed. Some rooms offer additional features such as individual climate controls, cable television, and telephone service, but not every accommodation includes every feature. Regular housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services are provided to keep living spaces clean and functional.
Dining is managed by a dietary team that prepares three daily meals based on physician-ordered diets ranging from regular fare to therapeutic options like low-sodium, diabetic, and puree menus. Meals are typically served in a communal dining room designed to encourage social interaction, though tray service is available for residents who prefer or require in-room dining. Snacks and beverages are offered throughout the day, and staff members are trained to provide feeding assistance and adaptive utensils when needed.
The facility maintains an activity center that hosts structured programs such as group exercises, games, and social events aimed at supporting cognitive and physical engagement. Recreational staff collaborate with therapy teams to tailor activities to individual abilities, and participation is encouraged to promote overall well-being and reduce isolation.
