Rehabilitation and skilled care (sometimes referred to as skilled nursing care or nursing home care) refers to care that is provided for residents who need the assistance of rehabilitative therapy staff and licensed nursing staff. Rehabilitation and skilled care is about more than providing care 24 hours a day. It’s about giving hope and helping overcome fear. It’s about being there to listen. It’s relating to people as people, not as patients. It’s cherishing life for the remarkable journey it has been, and that is still to come.
A rehabilitation and skilled care center should provide extensive physical, occupational, and speech therapies, as well as 24-hour skilled nursing care. Working closely with each patient and his or her family ensures specific goals are reached and physical, emotional and spiritual needs are met. An interdisciplinary approach to care and rehabilitation helps ensure positive results for each individual. As the nation’s largest not-for-profit provider of senior care, Good Samaritan Society has had a great deal of experience in providing these types of services.
At Good Samaritan Society Lake Forest Village, our rehabilitation facility features private living accommodations. Rooms are equipped with cable services and other amenities. The healthcare team provides training and physical conditioning with the goal of clients returning home safely. Our specialized assistance helps clients learn or strengthen skills required for independence and wellbeing. The emphasis on creating a caring home, where God’s love is shared in word and deed, sets the Good Samaritan Society apart from other senior communities.
