West Oaks Nursing And Rehabilitation Center operates as a nursing home, so its core service is around-the-clock skilled nursing care. Licensed nurses are on duty 24 hours a day to handle medication administration, monitoring of chronic conditions, and coordination with physicians. Residents who need post-acute recovery receive wound care, IV therapy, and pain management, while those with complex health needs benefit from respiratory support and diabetic oversight. Short-term rehabilitation is also available for individuals transitioning from a hospital stay, ensuring they regain strength and mobility before returning home when possible.
Beyond basic nursing, the center maintains on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy departments that design individualized treatment plans. A medical director reviews each resident’s status, and social workers help coordinate discharge planning or long-term placement. The staff schedules regular assessments, tracks vital signs, and provides fall-prevention programs. Assistance with daily living tasks such as bathing, grooming, and toileting is integrated into the care plan, and caregivers remain trained in infection control and dementia-related behaviors to address both physical and cognitive challenges.
Accommodations range from private to shared rooms, each furnished with adjustable hospital beds, basic furniture, and accessible bathrooms. Some rooms include in-room climate controls, while others rely on centralized settings; similarly, not every room has the same storage capacity, television setup, or window view. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services are provided, and emergency call systems are installed so residents can summon help quickly. Common areas such as lounges and therapy gyms are situated close to resident rooms to reduce travel distance for those with limited mobility.
Dining services supply three daily meals planned by a registered dietitian, with menus that can be modified for cardiac, diabetic, or texture-modified diets. Meals are usually served in a communal dining room to encourage social interaction, though tray service is offered to residents confined to their rooms. Snacks and hydration rounds occur between meals, and staff monitor intake for residents who need assistance eating. Adaptive utensils and portion adjustments are available, and family members can consult dietitians to discuss restrictions or preferences, recognizing that not every accommodation includes space for personal refrigeration or microwaves.
