Irondale Post Acute is a skilled nursing facility with 95 certified beds, usually caring for about 76 residents a day, and it's managed by Keith Englade since March 2020 under Endura Healthcare LLC, while being affiliated with The Ensign Group. The facility is not inside a hospital and has a license from US DHHS, number 65318. It's been cited in inspection reports with violations, including ones about infection control and failing to keep residents safe from hazards, so it's had some documented deficiencies for infection-related issues in the past. Nurse turnover is pretty high at 56.9%, and staffing comes to about 3 nurse hours per resident each day.
People living at Irondale Post Acute can get care for long-term needs or short-term stays after an illness or surgery, as well as respite care, with secure memory care options also available. Nurses on staff include RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and QMAPs, and the facility features care units such as Intensive Care, Medical-Surgical, and Emergency Room. There are infection control services and a program for therapy, which mixes new technology with traditional hands-on treatments, and they aim to tailor these therapies to what each person needs. Residents can join activities and go on planned outings, which help with social engagement. The staff works with each resident and their family to build care plans, using the latest research in therapy. While Irondale provides many services and tries to keep comfort and safety in mind, inspection histories and nurse turnover may be important for families to consider when looking at this facility.
