Altercare Canal Winchester sits at 6725 Thrush Dr in Canal Winchester, Ohio, and offers a full range of care for seniors needing rehab, long-term skilled nursing, memory care, and several kinds of supportive services, with 72 certified beds in cozy private suites, private bathrooms, and clean common areas, all run by a team of dedicated healthcare staff and managed by Altercare of Ohio, Inc. since August 2007. Residents will find trimmed lawns and peaceful outdoor spots where they can sit, along with comfortable patios, a card and game room, and places to visit with family or friends, while those with spiritual needs can use the chapel or join in spiritual support activities. The nursing and therapy departments offer physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, orthopedic therapy, stroke therapy, and cardiovascular rehab, with a therapy gym fully equipped for senior wellness, and the staff includes people trained by specialized nurse aide programs. Besides skilled nursing and post-acute care, the community provides short-term rehab to help people return home after a hospital stay, and also has long-term care, memory care for people with Alzheimer's or other dementia, and special support for those who need wound care, pressure ulcer care, infection prevention, medication management, nutritional counseling, or in-home medical support.
Meals prepared from quality ingredients are served restaurant-style once or twice a day, and there are robust laundry and housekeeping services, so residents and families don't have to worry about daily chores, plus options for personal care, daily money management, and help in the evenings. Throughout the building, there are safety systems, 24-hour nurse coverage, and an emergency call system. The staff focuses on individualized care, helping people heal or feel comfortable at the end of life, offering palliative, respite, and hospice care as needed, as well as spiritual care on site for those who want it. Activities are planned to keep residents active, engaged, and socially connected, with social gatherings and programs for physical, mental, and emotional health.
Altercare Canal Winchester has received recognitions for its rehabilitation results and for its team's kindness and helpful attitude. The community isn't BBB accredited, but holds an A+ rating and is owned by Tsg Nursing Centers, Inc., operated with involvement from Gerald F Schroer Dynasty Trust U/A, and works with local and national health plans, including Trinity Health Plan. Even though inspection reports sometimes show areas for improvement-mainly about infection control and pressure ulcer care-the facility addresses and works to fix such issues, striving for good quality of life and care. Staff members offer direct help and arrange for medical supplies, and the community follows infection control policies. Among its amenities, Altercare Canal Winchester includes a beauty and barber salon so residents can maintain routines, and the whole setting is meant to be serene, supportive, and fit for both recovery and long-term comfort.
