East End Health & Rehab Center in Pittsburgh operates as a skilled nursing facility, providing 24-hour clinical oversight and rehabilitation services for residents who need a higher level of medical attention. Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants monitor vital signs, administer medications, and respond to urgent needs throughout the day and night. On-site physical therapy is available for individuals recovering from surgery, illness, or injury, delivered by trained therapists who work with each resident’s physician to establish therapy goals and timelines.
Beyond direct medical treatments, the center manages care coordination and support services that help residents maintain or regain functional abilities. Staff members create individualized care plans, revise them as conditions change, and communicate progress to families and primary physicians. Assistance with activities of daily living—including bathing, dressing, and mobility—is provided for those who need it, and the team also handles wound care, pain management, and discharge planning when a resident is ready to transition home or to another setting.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms, each furnished with basic necessities and equipped for safety and accessibility. Some rooms provide direct access to outdoor areas where residents can spend time in the fresh air, although not all accommodations have all of the listed features. Housekeeping and personal laundry services are part of the routine, and maintenance staff are on hand to address any facility issues promptly.
Dining services focus on balanced nutrition and consistency with physician-ordered diets. Meals are prepared on site, with options for low-sodium, diabetic, and other specialized menus when prescribed. Residents typically eat in a communal dining room that allows staff to monitor intake and social interaction, but tray service to the room is available for those unable to leave their beds or who prefer private dining.
