Skilled Nursing Facility
A medical facility that provides 24-hour nursing care, rehabilitation, and medical supervision for patients who do not need hospital care but are not ready to return home. Skilled nursing facilities help patients recover from surgery, illness, or injury by offering physical therapy, wound care, medication management, and support with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. Patients can expect a team approach focused on regaining independence and improving quality of life.
