Burke Health and Rehabilitation Center operates as a nursing-home provider, delivering 24-hour skilled nursing care to residents who need ongoing medical supervision. Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants manage complex health conditions, administer medications, and monitor vital signs around the clock. The center also accepts short-term respite stays, giving family caregivers a break while ensuring the individual receives the same level of nursing oversight, wound care, and rehabilitation therapies available to long-term residents.
Beyond continuous nursing support, the facility coordinates on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy for residents working toward recovery or maintaining function. Care plans are developed by an interdisciplinary team that includes physicians, therapists, dietitians, and social workers, and these plans are reviewed regularly to adjust to any change in condition. Laboratory and diagnostic services are arranged as needed, and staff manage hospital transfers and follow-up appointments to help reduce unnecessary readmissions.
Resident accommodations range from private to shared rooms, each equipped with accessible bathrooms, basic furnishings, and emergency call systems. Outdoor areas are available for those wishing fresh air or a quiet place to visit with family, though not every accommodation has direct access to these spaces.
The culinary staff prepares three daily meals and scheduled snacks, with menus reviewed by a dietitian to align with physicians’ orders and individual dietary restrictions. Modified diets, texture-altered meals, and nutrition supplements are provided when clinically indicated, and residents who need assistance with eating receive support from trained staff.
Residents can spend free time in the Activity Center, where planned recreational programs encourage participation and social interaction. Clubs and communities meet regularly, offering discussion groups, hobby circles, and seasonal events that promote engagement. Those who enjoy reading or computer use can visit the Library & Computer Lounge, which houses books, periodicals, and internet-enabled workstations for email, video calls, or leisurely browsing.
