Long
Term Care Unit
In addition
to our many specialized services, Helen Porter continues to build
upon our 30-year tradition of high-quality long-term care services.
Separated from the Memory Care Neighborhood and the Short-Term Post
Acute Rehabilitation Unit, our long-term care residents receive
nursing care and assistance with daily living, as well as programs
and activities tailored to their abilities and needs.
Memory Care Unit
The Memory Care Unit is designed to
meet the changing needs of individuals as they experience the
progression of symptoms and increases in cognitive loss associated
with a diagnosis of dementia. Our early-stage program offers
activity-based care in a warm, supportive and safe environment with
a primary goal of helping individuals maintain dignity, purpose and
functional ability. This highly specialized unit is staffed with
very dedicated advocates and team members. Residents in this unit
are the most vulnerable, usually unable to advocate for themselves.
Post Acute Care
The goal of the Post Acute Unit at
Porter Medical Center - Helen Porter Rehabilitation & Nursing
is to provide supportive, goal-directed care following surgery
and / or hospitalization. Specially designed treatment programs
provide patients with the preparation, support and education that
enables them to return home as quickly as possible. Our goal is to
help patients reach their highest possible level of independence. A
partial list of conditions we work with includes strokes,
neurological conditions, orthopedic care, respiratory conditions,
and cardiac and post-trauma situations.
Routine
Therapy services are provided Monday through Friday. We also have
the capability of providing therapy six days a week if that is what
is required to maximize positive results. Nursing staff provide the
necessary extension of therapies when therapy staff are not present
to provide direct service. This may include walking, exercises and
supervision of other activities set up by the therapy staff.
