English Village Skilled Nursing & Therapy

English Village Skilled Nursing & Therapy is a skilled nursing facility licensed and regulated under CMS guidelines, and it shares inspection and staffing information with the public, so you can look up their track record if you're interested, and lately they've had a deficiency count of 6, including one related to infection control, and their inspection reports have shown some problems, especially about how care plans and coordination are handled. They have 128 certified beds, with about 61 residents staying on average each day, and they can take care of people who need skilled nursing, intermediate care for frail adults, and short-term rehab after things like surgery, strokes, or joint replacements. The management has been under Bridges Esop, Inc and William Coble since September 2021, and the facility works with Bridges Health, a group that runs other similar places. English Village has a nurse turnover rate of 45.8% and staff provides an average of 3.98 nursing hours per resident per day, so you can figure staffings go up and down. Residents can choose between private or semi-private rooms, and there are social spaces like two TV rooms, a living room, an enclosed porch, an activity area, and a courtyard, which makes the place feel homey and gives folks spots to sit with company. There are daily activities to help residents stay social and purposeful, with church services, visiting clergy, bible study, and faith-based support for those who want it, plus they hold resident council meetings so people living there can be heard about what goes on. Meals come from a rotating menu and favorites are served either in the dining area with table service or brought to rooms for those who'd rather eat alone, and they also do daily laundry and housekeeping, so basic needs are looked after. Beauty and barber services are on site, and scheduled transportation is available for things like medical appointments. Skilled therapy is a main focus here, with certified therapists providing physical, occupational, speech, and recreational therapy, and care plans often aim to help people recover between hospital and home, with some residents staying long-term if they need ongoing help. English Village can support people needing hospice or end-of-life care, offers support for tube feeding, and provides specialty services like vision and dental care. The facility's inspection reports are available, and while they do provide a range of needed therapies and nursing services, there've been some official concerns about deficiencies in infection control and care planning, so that's something to think about.
