Wilmington Nursing & Rehabilitation Center provides licensed nursing-home care for individuals who need ongoing medical oversight beyond what can be provided at home or in traditional assisted living. The center offers 24-hour skilled nursing coverage, post-hospital rehabilitation, IV therapy, wound management, tracheostomy and respiratory support, and help with complex medication regimens. Short-term residents work with an interdisciplinary rehab team to speed recovery after surgery, illness, or injury, while long-term residents receive continuous monitoring and interventions designed to stabilize chronic conditions and prevent avoidable hospital readmissions.
Beyond direct nursing care, the facility maintains on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy services, coordinated by licensed therapists who develop goal-oriented treatment plans. Attending physicians visit regularly, supported by nurse practitioners, social services staff, and a consulting pharmacy. Diagnostic labs and imaging can be arranged from the building, and staff coordinate transportation for off-site appointments when necessary. Restorative nursing programs, fall-prevention strategies, pain management, and discharge planning round out the clinical offerings.
Resident accommodations include a selection of private and shared rooms. Each room is equipped with basic furnishings, accessible bathrooms, climate control, and an emergency call system. Outdoor areas give residents space for fresh air and low-impact activity, although not every room has direct access to these spaces. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are handled by staff, and residents can personalize their living areas within safety guidelines.
Meals are prepared under the supervision of a registered dietitian to meet therapeutic and cultural preferences. Table service is provided in the main dining room, and tray delivery is available for residents who need or prefer to dine in their rooms. The Activity Center hosts cooking demonstrations, seasonal parties, and resident councils where menu feedback is gathered, helping the dietary team adjust offerings to changing tastes and nutritional goals.
Additional amenities include a library and computer lounge where residents can read, use the internet, and communicate with family through video calls or email. Staff provide technical assistance and schedule times to ensure equitable access to devices and workspace.
