Life Care Center of Raynham is a senior living community that supports different levels of care, so people can get independent living, assisted living, or skilled nursing when they need it. The staff provides round-the-clock help and supervision for those with chronic health needs and for anyone who needs extra support after leaving the hospital. The center offers Alzheimer's and dementia care, and there are rehabilitation services with an in-house team of therapists, so folks can get therapy right there in the building, and sometimes that's a relief when travel gets tough. For people with more complex needs, they've got specialized care like lymphedema therapy and Closed Pulse Irrigation wound care, and for swallowing disorders, they use VitalStim therapy, which is something a little more advanced.
The atmosphere there feels a bit like a small town, with spaces set up for social activities and staff trying to make people feel at home instead of in an institution. There's a spa and wellness center for a bit of comfort, plus all the regular safety features that older folks might want. Care plans are made by a team of nurses and therapists so each person gets care that fits them, and that's important when health can change so quickly. The place emphasizes long-term care and keeps up with quality programs-things like End of Life Care, Fall Prevention, and something called Sepsis Smart. Staff offers help with healthcare planning, too.
The home passed its annual state survey in January of 2018 with no deficiencies, which tells you they keep up with regulations, and they're involved with state and advocacy groups, supporting issues like caregiver wages and running staff training, including something called the RCA Training Course. They also join policy and safety programs, likely to keep things running the right way. Life Care Center of Raynham isn't flashy, but it's meant to serve seniors with complex health needs, providing therapies and care in a homelike setting.
