Azalea Gardens Nursing Center sits within a Continuing Care Retirement Community and tries to make life easier for seniors by offering several types of care, including skilled nursing, rehabilitation like physical and occupational therapy, and memory care for those who need extra help. The center has both private and semi-private rooms, some with kitchenettes and private bathrooms, plus cable TV, telephones, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi so residents can stay comfortable. Residents can enjoy meals in a shared dining room, try restaurant-style options, and get special menus for allergies or diabetes, with a professional chef in charge of the food, and many people say the meals are very good here, using quality ingredients and focusing on nutrition. The staff puts effort into making things feel home-like, with a focus on respecting everyone's choices and helping people keep as much independence as possible, and they're often described as helpful, joyful, and kind, which helps make the center feel welcoming.
There are housekeeping and laundry services, move-in help, and support for families, and the nursing center arranges plenty of social activities like movie nights, music programs, arts and crafts, fitness, outdoor walks in landscaped gardens or on walking paths, and even resident-run events, so people keep busy and stay connected. The community features common areas for socializing, a library, a game room, therapy rooms, an on-site beauty and barber shop, a fitness room, a spa, and picnic spots, plus outdoor courtyards and garden spaces for those who want to sit in the sun or go for a walk.
For safety, there's supervision and a call system 24 hours a day, with a nurse always around and a physician available for medical needs, as well as support for non-ambulatory residents. The center helps people with daily living-things like bathing, dressing, taking medicine, and moving around. It offers short- and long-term stays, skilled nursing care, end-of-life hospice support, lab and x-ray services on-site, and support for special needs. Residents and families can count on access to programs in different languages and a policy that won't discriminate based on race, national origin, disability, age, or . The community's main goal is to make everyone-residents, families, staff-feel at home, respected, and part of a heartfelt, happy group, and it tries to do this by building good routines, offering lots of activities, and supporting each person's health, independence, and choice in daily life. Azalea Gardens Nursing Center accepts both Medicare and Medicaid and aims to provide honest care that matches each person's needs.
