Silver Ridge Healthcare Center sits at 1151 S Torrey Pines Dr in Las Vegas, close to W. Charleston Blvd, offering 148 beds for people who need skilled nursing, whether for just a short while after surgery or illness, or for longer-term care when daily help is needed. The building feels warm and looks more like a home than most places built for rehab, with well-kept grounds, pleasant courtyards, and rooms that come furnished with electric beds, closets, phones or hooks for phones, satellite TVs, and are always well-lit and comfortable, so it feels less like a hospital and more like a safe place to recover. Nurses and professional staff are there 24 hours every day, so people always have help if they need it, and there's always a Medical Director or an attending physician supervising the care, which covers everything from tracheostomy care to wound care to TPN/PPN nutrition, along with regular pain and diabetic management, fall and continence programs, and careful contracture management.
For very frail residents, staff give all the personal and health care needed, and for those planning to go back home, they run a homeward bound rehab program, where short-term rehab, outpatient therapy, and lots of support set people up for success after leaving; physical, occupational, respiratory, and speech therapy are offered every day of the week, both in-house and as outpatient services, so recovery stays on track, and the stroke recovery and cardiac recovery programs go hand in hand with more advanced care using up-to-date equipment and skilled therapists. Residents can make use of emergency services, primary and specialty care, diagnostic tests, nutritional counseling, and preventative health screenings without needing to leave, and when it is time to see a doctor outside the center or get more tests, the center runs a free transportation service.
They think about comfort and community, too, with activity programs that encourage involvement, a barber shop and beauty services, an open dining room with good meal choices, a therapy area, and private rooms for therapy, while the enclosed and manicured courtyards let people enjoy the outdoors safely. The dining area is bright and designed for sharing meals, with menus tailored to different diets, and staff encourage each resident to join in activities fit for their ability and interests-some just like to visit with others, some like structured daily programs, and some prefer quiet time. The staff wants each person to keep their dignity, and they keep learning new ways to meet both physical and emotional needs, having clearly written privacy policies and professional care practices. The center accepts admissions 24 hours a day, runs seven days a week from 9 AM to 5 PM, and offers pre-admission counseling to help families figure out finances and what to expect, while also connecting with home health, home care, hospice, adult care home, assisted and independent living, and memory care as needed, drawing on local community resources and support groups when possible. The center is committed to helping people feel comfortable, supported, and as independent as possible.
