Ambler Extended Care Center operates as a skilled nursing home, supplying around-the-clock licensed nursing oversight and assistance with daily living tasks for residents who require a higher level of clinical attention. Staff members manage medication administration, wound care, and coordination with physicians to keep treatment plans current, while on-site registered nurses monitor changes in condition and update families and care providers promptly.
The center also accepts individuals who need shorter stays for respite or recovery. Physical therapy is available on site, and therapists work with nursing staff to design rehabilitation schedules aimed at regaining strength and mobility before a resident returns home. Respite and other short-term guests receive access to the same nursing coverage, therapy equipment, and clinical resources as long-term residents, helping families secure a safe option for temporary care.
Resident rooms are equipped with basic furnishings, and some include features such as cable TV, Wi-Fi, and private access to outdoor areas. Housekeeping services handle routine cleaning and linen changes, and a facility library with computer stations offers a quiet place to read or go online. Pet-friendly arrangements are possible in select areas of the community; however, availability varies, and not every accommodation includes all listed features.
All daily meals are prepared and served on site. The dietary team follows physician-ordered nutrition plans, makes texture modifications when needed, and offers alternate entrée choices to address dietary restrictions or personal preferences.
On the social side, the activity staff schedules regular events in the activity center, including bingo games, arts and crafts sessions, club meetings, and evening television or movie viewings. These programs aim to keep residents engaged and socially connected without requiring them to leave the premises.
