Eastbrook Healthcare Center - Providing on-site Ventilator Dialysis

Eastbrook Healthcare Center sits in Cleveland, Ohio, and offers both short-term and long-term nursing care for adults over 55 who need a little or a lot of help, including those who need skilled nursing every day and specialized respiratory support. Eastbrook's known for its ventilator unit and the on-site Ventilator Dialysis services which are set up for people who rely on ventilators and who also need dialysis, with a team of doctors and respiratory therapists who work together so respiratory and kidney care happen right in the building, and they use staff-assisted hemodialysis with the advanced NxStage system, which tries to be more comfortable for residents and is like home hemodialysis. There's the VOCSN Critical Care Ventilator and Stryker II Beds to help keep ventilated patients as safe and comfortable as possible, and ventilator dialysis is all handled in a special area right at Eastbrook. Along with healthcare for those on ventilators, the center provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy, plus palliative and hospice care, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia in a safe area with family-style meals and activities, and respite stays for folks who just need a break or recovery between hospital and home. Wound assessment and treatment focus on healing and preventing new problems, and nutrition management is also included for those with special diets. There's always a regular activity calendar, so residents can join fun and meaningful programs like Bible study, games, and trivia nights to keep spirits up. The staff at Eastbrook works closely with residents to meet individual needs and keep up everyone's well-being, and the place is known in the Cleveland area for its history and strong connection to the community, aiming every day to create a nurturing, safe space for older adults with complex health needs.
