Carrington Place at Botetourt Commons operates as a skilled nursing facility, providing round-the-clock clinical oversight for residents who need a higher level of medical support. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants are on duty 24 hours a day, administering medications, monitoring vital signs, and coordinating care plans ordered by attending physicians. The center manages post-acute recovery, long-term custodial care, and complex medical needs such as wound treatment, tracheostomy management, and IV therapy. Rehabilitation services—physical, occupational, and speech therapy—are available for residents working to regain strength after surgery, illness, or injury.
Beyond direct medical care, the facility offers ancillary health services that help residents maintain stability and avoid hospital readmission. On-site lab and diagnostic arrangements, pharmacy coordination, and regular physician rounds support timely treatment adjustments. A medical director oversees infection control protocols, while social services staff help with discharge planning and family communication. The community also coordinates hospice care, respite stays, and transportation to off-site dialysis, oncology, and specialist appointments, aiming to keep the resident’s care continuum as seamless as possible.
Accommodations include a mix of private and companion suites equipped with adjustable beds, individual climate controls, emergency call systems, and in-room restrooms fitted with grab bars. Cable television, basic Wi-Fi, and weekly housekeeping are available; however, not all accommodations have all of these features. Pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Residents receive three daily meals prepared under a registered dietitian’s guidance, with therapeutic menus for diabetic, cardiac, renal, or textured-modified diets. Meals are typically served in a communal dining room, though in-room service is available for those who need it. Snacks are provided between meals, and hydration stations remain accessible throughout the day. Family members can arrange to dine with residents, and nutritional preferences or allergies are reviewed regularly to keep meal plans current.
