Eastside Health & Rehabilitation Center sits at 1400 E. Washington St. in Pittsfield, Illinois, and it's part of Petersen Health Care, going by both its main name and sometimes just Petersen Health Care. The center has 99 certified beds, and the building holds facilities meant for patient care, especially focused on rehabilitation and health services, where you'll find nursing, physician services, nutritional counseling, audiology consulting, transportation, housekeeping, pharmacy, and a range of therapies including occupational, speech, physical, oxygen, and intravenous therapies, and you'll see they do individualized care planning for each resident. People who live there can also use laboratory, clinical pathology, X-ray, and podiatry services, plus drug and medical supply services, while Eastside offers day care, clinical supervision, and social services along with educational, recreational, and social events-folks can expect skilled nursing services and both short-term rehabilitation for people going from hospital back to home, and intermediate care for the very frail who need daily nursing. Folks can pay online and use resources for residents and families, including guides and links on the facility's website, and there are management and professional referral options on top of the main care offerings.
There's been 16 total deficiencies mentioned in inspection reports over recent years, ranging from a failure in infection control and not having a working infection prevention program, to a lack of proper care for residents' urinary needs, meaning some have gone without appropriate prevention for urinary tract infections, plus a violation about not having a registered nurse on duty 8 hours every day and not selecting a full-time nurse director. The infection-related deficiencies total 3, and nurse turnover is noted at 30.8%, with reported total nurse staffing at 3.33 hours for each resident per day. Kathryn Wiswell's managed the place since November 2015, while Mark Petersen owns it fully-Eastside Health & Rehabilitation Center operates as a for-profit corporation. People who need it will find rehabilitation and healthcare management, lifestyle services, levels of care, and access to amenities, with pictures and guides on their website for families looking to see a bit more about daily life there.
