The Grove At Latrobe in Latrobe, PA operates as a skilled nursing facility that delivers 24-hour medical supervision. Licensed nurses oversee medication administration, wound care management, post-surgical monitoring, IV therapy, and chronic disease oversight. The team follows individualized care plans approved by attending physicians, and certified nursing assistants provide hands-on support with bathing, dressing, mobility, and other daily needs. Emergency response systems and on-site diagnostic services help staff address acute changes in condition without unnecessary transfers.
Complementing its core medical services, the facility offers on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy designed to restore or maintain functional abilities after illness or injury. Social services staff coordinate discharge planning, arrange follow-up appointments, and assist families with insurance questions. Restorative nursing programs aim to prevent decline through targeted exercises and range-of-motion activities, while respite and hospice options are available for short-term stays or end-of-life support. Regular interdisciplinary meetings ensure care plans stay current as residents’ needs evolve.
Living quarters include a mix of private and shared rooms equipped with adjustable beds and nurse-call systems. En-suite or nearby bathrooms feature grab bars and non-slip flooring, and most rooms have individual climate controls and basic cable access, although not every accommodation includes each of these features. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and linen services are provided on a routine schedule, and common lounges give residents additional space to visit with family or take part in activities.
Residents receive three daily meals prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian who tailors menus to physician-ordered therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or puree textures. Meals are served in a communal dining room with staff available to provide set-up or feeding assistance. Snacks and hydration stations are offered between meals, and alternate entrée choices accommodate personal taste or religious preferences. Room service is available for those recovering from illness or preferring to dine privately, though not all accommodations are set up for in-room dining on a regular basis.
