Life Care Center of Hickory Woods provides licensed nursing-home care, offering 24-hour skilled nursing coverage for residents who require ongoing medical oversight. The center is equipped to deliver short-term rehabilitation for patients recovering from surgery or illness, a structured pulmonary rehabilitation program for individuals managing chronic lung conditions, and focused diabetes care that includes monitoring and education. Respite stays are available for families needing temporary support, ensuring their loved ones receive consistent professional attention.
Additional clinical resources include on-site respiratory care and respiratory therapy, coordinated by licensed therapists who work closely with physicians to track progress and adjust treatment plans. The interdisciplinary team—nurses, therapists, and case managers—develops individualized care plans and communicates regularly with families about goals and outcomes. The facility maintains on-site therapy gyms and diagnostic support to streamline treatment and reduce the need for outside appointments.
Private and semi-private living spaces are available, and selected rooms feature kitchenettes, cable TV, fireplaces, or wireless internet access. Outdoor areas and garden spaces allow residents to spend time outside, and flexible visiting hours let families plan visits that suit their schedules. Because room layouts vary, not every accommodation includes all of these features; prospective residents should confirm specific details during a tour.
Daily meals are prepared on-site and included in the monthly rate. Menus are reviewed by dietitians to support residents’ medical needs and personal preferences. Staff members are available to assist with dining as needed, and alternate entrées are offered for those with dietary restrictions.
Residents have access to an activity center that schedules group and individual programs, a library and computer lounge for reading or internet use, walking paths that circle the property, and a putting green for light recreation.
