Delano District Skilled Nursing sits in Delano, California, in a building that feels modern and works efficiently, where 135 residents stay on average each day, and the space is set up thoughtfully so folks find it easy to relax and spend time together, and the beds-141 in total-are all certified, which means there's room for quite a few people. The place operates as a non-profit, and staff members are always on-site since care runs 24 hours a day, every day. Visiting hours go from 8 in the morning until 8 at night, and the business office is open from Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., though it closes on big holidays.
There's a consistent effort here to take care of both short-term and long-term needs, and the staff is focused on keeping things clean and making sure residents feel respected, while the team of nurses provides about 3.91 hours of direct care for every resident each day, even though the nurse turnover rate has been 26.1%. The place has seen 5 infection-related deficiencies according to inspection reports, and anyone wanting to learn more about government inspections or comparisons can find a link to the facility's Medicare page right on the homepage. Everyone works together, including residents and their families, to develop care plans, which cover skilled nursing, rehabilitation, long-term care and assisted living support, making sure plans fit both medical and financial needs, and the aim is to help residents get as independent as possible and sometimes move back to their own homes or families when it's safe. Teams here pay a lot of attention to how each person is doing, meeting with families, and making adjustments when someone's health changes, and it's easy to see that fostering relaxation, good surroundings, and resident dignity matters as much as the medical care itself.
