Skilled nursing care helps patients continue their recovery from an injury, illness or chronic condition. It is the highest level of care a person can receive outside of a hospital, and typically involves additional nursing and therapy services provided by licensed healthcare professionals.
Our team of skilled nursing professionals are certified to provide specialized care that meet the individual needs of each patient. At Catholic Health, we provide services focused in different areas of care, including cardiopulmonary, IV therapy, mother-baby care, spiritual care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, social work, and more. Rather than offer generalized care, our specialty teams allow caregivers to understand each person’s unique needs and provide care plan is the best fit for them.
Taking advantage of the high level of care provided by our skilled nursing professionals has lead to the reduction of ER visits and hospital admissions.

- Rehabilitation services (physical, occupation, and speech therapies)
- Intravenous (IV) therapy
