Ridgewood Rehabilitation & Living Center sits at 1624 Highland Drive in Washington, North Carolina, and offers 128 skilled nursing beds, so there's room for many needs, and there's staff with years of hands-on experience, including some who've served residents for more than 20 years, and you've got Lisa Hartley as the administrator, with Dr. David Lewis providing on-site care as the affiliated physician, so you know you're getting both seasoned staff members and a medical expert on hand, and the whole place operates 24 hours a day, whether folks need short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, or a respite stay if a family caregiver has to leave town for a bit, and there's a focus on personal touches, like private room options when needed and amenities and monthly community events, including special ones for veterans, creating a community-centered, home-like environment, and you'll find options for both rehabilitation and living services, which means the team covers a range of healthcare needs from help after surgery to daily support over the years, and the staff-who are nursing staff plus others described as "dedicated"-try to make a difference for residents each day, and since Ridgewood is certified by Great Place to Work® and linked to the North Carolina Health Care Facilities Association, that suggests management tries to support both its workers and the larger care community, and though there's no extra promotional info out there, what's clear is that the care comes with comfort and heart and the staff want to bring their skill and warmth to every resident.

Warm staff but concerning care
I found the staff warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, and the halls and common areas felt clean and welcoming. That said, the building is outdated with small shared rooms and spotty hygiene - bathrooms need more cleaning, sheets sometimes aren't washed, and the food is plain and poor. My biggest concern is staffing and care gaps that should be investigated before entrusting a loved one.
