Harborview Thomaston is a skilled nursing facility that provides both short-term and long-term care, and while it accepts referrals from many Atlanta and community hospitals, folks can also come for assisted living, rehabilitation, and memory support if they need it. This faith-based place includes prayer in its care plans, with a focus on caring, respect, integrity, and gratitude, and it's gone and gotten itself the Gold Seal of Approval from The Joint Commission, plus a Platinum Seal from the Georgia Department of Public Health for Antibiotic Stewardship. Residents get personalized care plans, and the staff helps with daily living, medication management, health monitoring, pharmacy, podiatry, ambulation, and even chores and appointment scheduling. There's 24-hour skilled nursing, and onsite physicians and nurse practitioners show up five days a week, with after-hours call support every day, while therapy staff for physical, occupational, and speech needs work as in-house employees. Families get regular updates, and folks receive help with paperwork and documentation for admission, which can be completed electronically or within a day, and the staff can guide everyone through wellness and recovery.
The rooms are spacious, and the Esteem Salon gives free grooming services, plus there's a first-class dining experience, outdoor covered patio, and scenic outdoor spaces that invite folks to spend some time outside. Harborview Thomaston also offers all kinds of therapies-pet visits, music, occupational and aromatherapy-along with exercise and cooking programs, activities for social and mental stimulation, and life skills training. For folks dealing with memory loss, there are memory impairment support programs with special life enrichment activities designed for them. The facility offers both nutritional and dietary supervision and keeps up with social, recreational, and wellness activities. Harborview Thomaston belongs to the American Health Care Association and the Georgia Health Care Association, which means it's connected to larger organizations. All in all, the staff works with families, doctors, and residents to set goals and match care to individual needs, and the leadership team oversees every step. There's a Facebook page for those who want updates or to see what life looks like. The facility stands ready to offer tours, and while a lot goes on, the basic aim is to provide steady care, plenty of support, and a bit of comfort for folks who need it most.
