Autumn Care of Madison operates as a skilled nursing home and provides 24-hour clinical oversight from registered nurses and licensed practical nurses. Residents can receive comprehensive medical services such as medication administration, wound management, IV therapy, pain control and post-operative recovery support. The center also offers onsite physical, occupational and speech rehabilitation programs that aim to help residents maintain or regain functional abilities following illness or injury.
Additional care features include individualized care planning completed by an interdisciplinary team that reviews each resident’s goals and progress. A consulting medical director, attending physicians and nurse practitioners conduct routine rounds, while a registered dietitian monitors nutritional status to address specialized dietary needs. The facility coordinates laboratory, radiology and pharmacy services, and hospice or respite care can be arranged when appropriate.
Private and semiprivate rooms are available, each designed for safety with accessible bathrooms and emergency call systems, and some rooms provide direct access to outdoor areas where residents can enjoy fresh air. Not all accommodations have every feature, so families should confirm the exact layout, storage options and outdoor access when selecting a room.
Meals are prepared onsite and served three times daily in a communal dining space, with staff assistance for anyone who needs help eating or requires adaptive utensils. Menu planning follows physician-ordered diets and the guidance of a dietitian, and alternatives are offered at each meal to accommodate personal preferences or restrictions.
Residents can visit the activity center, a dedicated space where recreation staff organize social events, crafts and games aimed at encouraging engagement and maintaining cognitive skills.
