Claremore Skilled Nursing & Therapy

Claremore Skilled Nursing & Therapy is a nursing home that sits outside a hospital and isn't a continuing care retirement community, so folks who come here often need skilled nursing or long-term care, which covers a lot of ground from help with bathing, eating, and dressing, to 24-hour nursing, medication help, and social services. The place usually has around 73 people staying each day and has 118 certified beds, with a mission focused on serving people with compassion and dignity, and the staff puts a lot of effort into meeting folks' needs with respect and understanding at every turn. Residents have access to skilled nurses, nurse aides, and therapists, with the therapy team-made up of certified physical, occupational, and speech therapists-helping people recover after strokes, heart attacks, surgery, broken bones, joint replacement, or breathing issues, and there's a wide range of therapy services, though on average residents get about 0.02 hours of therapy, 2.14 hours with nurse aides, 1.06 hours with licensed practical or vocational nurses, and 0.25 hours with registered nurses each day. Claremore offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy with plans made for each person, often following up after a hospital stay, and they provide help with recovery, building independence, and getting mobility back. Folks find amenities like a barbershop, a lab, and a TV lounge, and rooms have reading lights and emergency response systems for peace of mind, while the building has automatic sprinkler systems where needed for fire safety. They handle plenty of medical issues, too, with dialysis support, pain and wound care, help for diabetes, hospice, respiratory care, and other health services. Housekeeping is available, and there's a resident council, so people can have a say. Claremore takes Medicare and Medicaid, and the place is a for-profit partnership, overseen by Heather Stanton, the Administrator, and while everything is patient-centered, there's always a focus on giving comfort and supporting recovery with a holistic approach for all residents.
