Aspen Ridge West Transitional Rehab in Murray, UT operates as a skilled nursing facility, concentrating on short-term rehabilitation and long-term nursing-home care. Residents have access to 24-hour licensed nursing, on-site physicians, and a full range of clinical services such as medication administration, wound management, post-surgical care, and IV therapy. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work with each resident on individualized recovery plans designed to improve mobility, strength, and daily function before discharge or transition to long-term placement.
Beyond direct medical treatment, the center coordinates ancillary services that support recovery and ongoing health. Pain management programs, respiratory therapy, and specialized cardiac or orthopedic rehabilitation are available based on physician orders. Case managers monitor progress, arrange follow-up appointments, and facilitate communication with family members. Social services and discharge planners assist residents in securing durable medical equipment, home-health referrals, and community resources to promote a safe return home whenever possible.
Accommodations are designed to meet medical needs while offering a degree of personal comfort. Rooms are available in private or shared configurations and may include adjustable hospital beds, individual climate controls, accessible bathrooms with grab bars, and emergency call systems; not every room has each of these features. Housekeeping, personal laundry, and routine maintenance are provided, and common spaces such as lounges and therapy gyms allow residents to socialize or participate in scheduled activities when they are not in treatment sessions.
Meals are prepared on site under the guidance of a registered dietitian who reviews medical charts to ensure each resident receives the correct therapeutic diet, texture modification, or fluid restriction. Three set meal times are offered daily, with supplemental snacks and hydration rounds between meals. Residents who are able may dine in a communal dining room; tray service to the room is available for those requiring additional rest or infection precautions. Menu alternatives are routinely offered, though not every option is available at every meal, and visiting family members can arrange guest meals with prior notice.
