Skilled Nursing Facility/ Rehab Center

Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) or Rehab centers facilitate recovery from acute care incidents and accidents or major health issues. Once discharged from the hospital, care may be required for an additional period of time, SNFs are able to provide these additional therapies on site. Close supervision or services from aphysician, nurse, social worker, physical therapist, occupational therapist or a respiratory therapist may be required. Insurances such as L & I, LTC Insurance Medicaid Insurance are used as a form of payment if an individual qualifies. Most seniors will never need a nursing home due to the increased services that assisted living and Dementia/Alzheimer’s/Memory Care Communities can perform.
