Twin Falls Transitional Care of Cascadia sits in Twin Falls, Idaho and has been open since January 2020, with Mr. Steve LaForte as the manager, and it's a limited liability company that works 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The facility is dually licensed with 116 beds and serves both people recovering after surgery, illness, or injury and those who need long-term care, offering both transitional and long-term care options depending on what you need, and you can choose a private or semi-private room, each with adjustable hospital beds and pressure-relieving mattresses if you require them.
There's plenty of focus on patient-centered rehabilitation, which means every person gets a care plan that fits their specific needs and personal goals. The skilled nursing staff-registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, and restorative nursing aides-looks after residents day and night. Nurse practitioners are available on site four to five days a week, and you get access to medical care, medication management, wound care, IV therapy, and a range of rehabilitation services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy in two well-equipped gyms, including programs for certified lymphedema therapy and restorative nursing exercises most days a week.
Twin Falls Transitional Care tries hard to make life comfortable and supportive, aiming to make the transition from the hospital to home as smooth as it can be, but also a decent permanent home if you're planning to stay longer. Meals are provided with help from a dietician if needed, there's help with dressing, bathing, grooming, toileting, and personal care throughout the day and night, and they also handle laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and offer maintenance help when needed, all inside a place that's made safe for wheelchairs and walkers.
Community life includes a game room, kitchenettes, fitness center, salon and barber services, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and church services. You'll see a regular mix of arts and crafts, social events, health and wellness programs, and one-to-one activities each week. Transportation gets arranged for local appointments, and there's guest parking for visitors. Security features like sprinklers, handrails, and safety bars are built in, and the property has washers and dryers.
Case managers help with discharge planning and social services, and the facility keeps a strong focus on treating everyone with dignity and respect, working to build personal connections between the staff and the residents, and trying to promote comfort and meaningful relationships. Twin Falls Transitional Care accepts long-term care insurance, offers support for both short-term stays and permanent ones, and has a presence on Facebook if you want to see updates or community news. Though not accredited by the Better Business Bureau, it holds an A+ rating.
