Dunmore Health Care Center operates as a skilled nursing home, delivering round-the-clock clinical oversight and supportive services for residents who require extensive daily assistance. Short-term respite stays are available, giving caregivers a break while ensuring the individual receives the same nursing attention as long-term residents. On-site physical therapy is offered several days a week, and licensed therapists work closely with nursing staff to promote mobility, manage pain, and aid recovery after illness or surgery.
Beyond these primary care options, the center maintains a full nursing team 24 hours a day to handle medication administration, wound care, and coordination with physicians and specialists. A dedicated rehabilitation gym allows therapists to tailor therapy plans, while care conferences keep families updated on progress. Discharge planning and follow-up coordination help residents transition safely to home or another level of care when appropriate.
Residents can choose from private or shared rooms, and some areas of the building welcome small pets. Outdoor sitting spaces, a library and computer lounge, regularly scheduled housekeeping, and access to cable television and Wi-Fi are available in many—but not all—accommodations, so it is important to confirm specific features during a visit.
The dining program provides three daily meals prepared to meet varied nutritional needs, including diabetic, low-sodium, and mechanically altered diets when prescribed. Menus rotate to maintain variety and are reviewed by a registered dietitian. Staff are present in the dining room to assist residents who need help with eating, and snacks are offered between meals for those who require additional calories.
Day-to-day life is supported by an activity center that hosts exercise sessions, crafts, and educational presentations. Residents can also join clubs and organized community groups that encourage social interaction and help maintain cognitive and emotional well-being.
