Fountain Inn Post Acute in Fountain Inn, SC is licensed as a nursing-home, delivering round-the-clock skilled nursing for residents who need clinical oversight beyond what an assisted-living community normally provides. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses remain on site at all hours to handle medication administration, pain management, and monitoring of chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and COPD. The facility is equipped to support post-hospital recovery, offering short-term rehabilitation alongside long-term custodial care, so residents can transition smoothly whether they are regaining strength after surgery or managing ongoing medical needs.
Complementing its core nursing services, Fountain Inn Post Acute provides a suite of rehabilitative and ancillary care options. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists run individualized therapy programs designed to restore mobility, daily living skills, and communication abilities. Specialized services such as wound care, IV therapy, and respiratory support are available when ordered by a physician. The care team also coordinates with outside providers for dialysis, palliative, and hospice services, ensuring continuity of treatment. Social services staff help families with discharge planning and connect residents to community resources, rounding out the clinical care model.
Resident accommodations range from private to shared rooms, each furnished with an adjustable bed, basic storage, and either a private or shared accessible bathroom. Emergency call systems are installed in sleeping areas and bathrooms, and most rooms include cable and Wi-Fi hookups as well as individual climate controls. Not all rooms carry every amenity, so prospective residents should confirm specific features such as private showers or additional furnishings during their visit.
Meals are prepared on site under the supervision of a registered dietitian, providing three set menus daily that meet USDA and physician-ordered nutritional guidelines. Therapeutic diets—including low-sodium, diabetic, and mechanically altered textures—are available, and staff members offer feeding assistance when needed. Residents typically dine in a communal dining room that allows for social interaction, although tray service to the room is provided for those who are ill or prefer privacy. Menu choices, dining times, and availability of snacks can vary depending on clinical orders and room assignments, so families are encouraged to ask about any specific dietary preferences or restrictions.
