Long-term Residential Care

Traditional 24-hour skilled nursing care is provided at all seven long-term care three residences. Each offers a friendly and homelike environment in comfortable and familiar surroundings. We encourage residents to remain as independent as possible, while we provide as much personal assistance as necessary. Services and programs include:

• -  Physical, occupational and speech therapies
• -  Dental, optometry and podiatry services
• -  Social work counseling
• -  Psychological services
• -  Housekeeping and personal laundry
• -  Beautician/barber services
• -  Activities to promote intellectual and creative growth
• -  Trips and outings to stay in touch with the community
• -  Resident councils and family support groups
• -  Telephone, cable television and Internet access
• -  Religious services
• -  Hospice care

Short-term Rehabilitation

Until recently, if you needed rehabilitation services following surgery, accident or stroke, you had only one option -- a rehabilitation hospital. Today, experts realize that many people can regain their strength, mobility and independence in a less intensive setting.

Four of The Eddy's nursing facilities provide short-term, sub-acute rehabilitation services for individuals who do not require the intensive rehabilitation therapy provided at an acute rehabilitation hospital:

• *  Eddy Heritage House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center
• *  Our Lady of Mercy Life Center
• *  St. Peter's Nursing and Rehabilitation Center
• *  Schuyler Ridge Residential Healthcare

Admission

For long-term residential care, we encourage prospective residents and their families to schedule a tour. Meet our staff. Ask questions. Decisions on admissions are made on an individual basis, as vacancies occur.

For short-term rehabilitation, The Eddy will work with your physician and hospital staff to determine if one of our nursing homes are appropriate for you -- to help you reach your full potential and ease the transition from hospital to home.

For Eddy Nursing Homes, you will need to complete both the Universal Application and Eddy Application for nursing home admission.
