The basics
Skilled nursing facilities, also known as nursing homes, provide 24/7 medical care and supervision from licensed nurses.
They serve individuals who need short-term rehabilitation after surgery or illness, or long-term care for chronic conditions and complex medical needs. These communities are fully staffed with RNs, therapists, aides, and medical professionals ready to provide around-the-clock attention.
Two kinds of stay
For recovery after hospitalization, surgery, or injury. Includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy.
For individuals who require ongoing nursing support due to medical complexity, disabilities, or advanced age.
Facilities can provide wound care, diabetes management, ventilator support, and medication administration.
Clearing up the confusion
Many families confuse assisted living and skilled nursing. Here’s how they differ:
Provide medical care with 24/7 nursing staff, often for residents with serious or chronic health conditions.
Offer help with daily living (like bathing and dressing) but do not provide medical care. Read more about assisted living.
Choosing between them depends on your loved one’s medical needs, level of independence, and long-term outlook. We can help clarify which path is right for your situation.
