Hobart Nursing & Rehab sits right in Hobart, Oklahoma, next to the County Health Department and Elkview General Hospital, which makes it easy for residents to get medical help fast if needed, and the staff here includes licensed nurses, physical therapists, and qualified nursing assistants who work around the clock to take care of both short-term and long-term needs, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care, and respite care for those giving care at home to someone else and really needing a break. Folks get meals every day-breakfast, lunch, dinner, and elders meals, and the staff helps with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving around, offering personal care 24/7, plus the rooms have air conditioning, private bathrooms, electric high/low beds, and come either as private suites or shared spaces, fully furnished for comfort, and there are cable, Wi-Fi, and telephone and internet services available so everyone can stay connected.
The facility has recently been remodeled, so communal areas are spacious, and the outdoor spaces are landscaped so folks can get some fresh air, and because the staff is there all the time, with a 24-hour call system, residents get quick help whenever they call, whether they need help with medication, wound care, or tracheostomy care, and there's a big focus on safety, especially for people with memory care needs since it's a protected environment to help keep everyone safe and secure. There's a chapel for spiritual needs, and programs like physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, intravenous therapy, and wound care help people recover or manage their health every day, and the therapy team works with each person to set up care based on what they need, not just one-size-fits-all.
Residents can join activities like bible study, bingo, ice cream socials, birthday parties, devotionals, and trips out for shopping or errands, and there's a nice list of events and social time to keep from feeling lonely-plus transportation's arranged for medical visits, shopping, and more. The facility is non-smoking, and there are both private and semi-private rooms, and housekeeping plus linen services are all included, so no one has to worry about chores, and meals are prepared daily with dietary needs in mind. The staff also manages medicines and sets up doctor visits, working with outside health care providers to coordinate each resident's care, and social media keeps families up to date for those who want digital connectivity. As part of Southwest LTC, a group known for operating several care facilities, Hobart Nursing & Rehab is managed by Larry Lockwood, the Administrator, who works to keep the place running and comfortable for everyone who calls it home.
