Integrity Healthcare of Carbondale sits in a quiet residential neighborhood, making it easy for families and visitors to find, and folks can come and go as needed since the doors are open every day, all hours, which really helps people keep in touch and feel at home. The place has 131 beds and runs as a for-profit corporation, managed by Integrity Healthcare Communities LLC, and it holds a proper Skilled Nursing Facility license, so it's checked and inspected regularly, earning a strong A-minus for inspections with no severe issues noted, and its nursing staff has a B-plus grade, which means the care is above average. Reviews land around 3.2 out of 5 with 31 people weighing in, and historically the overall grade sits at a B-minus, so most would say the place keeps a respectable standard over time.
The staff here really focus on keeping the care personal, saying that quality means doing things right even when nobody's watching, and the feeling around the halls often comes off as a kind of extended family, especially since the staff treat the residents as the most important folks in the building. They take care of all sorts of health needs, with skilled nursing services going all day and night, plus there's help for memory issues like Alzheimer's and other dementia types, along with behavioral health support for those who need it. If a person needs help recovering from a stroke, wound care, IV antibiotics, or any kind of rehab-physical, occupational, or speech therapy-they'll get it, and they'll also find counseling on nutrition and other daily needs since the approach here leans towards looking after the whole person, not just the medical needs.
Integrity Healthcare of Carbondale welcomes people on Medicare and Medicaid, and also helps folks looking into long-term care insurance or searching for caregiving resources, and once inside, every resident gets a care plan tailored for them, plus help with medications, end-of-life and palliative support, and memory care if needed. There's a steady calendar of social activities, with outings, recreational programs, in-house church services, and even entertainment, so boredom doesn't really last long. People who want something more independent or need less help can choose different care settings, from full nursing home stays to assisted or independent living arrangements. There aren't formal resident or family councils, and while amenities aren't specifically listed, ongoing renovations are putting in new furnishings, lighting, and other touches to brighten the place up. The goal is to keep things safe and compliant, to help residents feel at peace, and to foster a setting where everyone feels like a valued part of the community, no matter where they come from or what they need.
