ABOUT THE FACILITY

Sullivan County Health Care (SCHC) is owned by the citizens of Sullivan County and is operated by the County Commissioners to provide residential nursing care for those in need of these services. SCHC is home to Sullivan County located in quiet and peaceful Unity, New Hampshire.

SCHC staff is committed to providing preventive and restorative care to all its residents. The physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological needs of each resident are addressed by qualified medical nursing staff and supportive allied health care professionals while maintaining each resident's rights of confidentiality, safety, and quality of life. Through a comprehensive approach as well as assessment, staff will endeavor to achieve and maintain the maximum potential of each resident.

At all times, resident's wishes are interwoven throughout their care plan. We strongly encourage residents, responsible family members, or legal representatives to collaborate in the development of their care plan to ensure a comfortable, fun and home-like environment.

Our home is Medicaid licensed for 156 beds as an Intermediate Care Facility (ICF) and is certified by the New Hampshire Bureau of Health Facilities Administration. The nursing home provides 24-hour Nursing care and other services to residents whose health care needs cannot be successfully managed at home or in a community setting.

Sullivan County Health Care is also a Medicare approved Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF). If a potential residents doctor determines that Skilled-nursing placement is appropriate, following a qualifying stay in the hospital, we can accommodate their needs.

Once the facility application is completed in full and returned, medical information will be obtained to assist in determining nursing home placement. If necessary, a home visit will be scheduled with our Director of Community Development. If an appropriate bed is not available, a waiting list is maintained, with Sullivan County residents having priority.
