Tuttle Care Center is a skilled nursing and rehabilitation home where nurses and staff help with things like moving from a bed to a wheelchair, getting dressed, managing medications, and checking insulin for diabetes. Staff are on-site and ready to respond to emergencies 24 hours a day. The center cares for people who need long-term help, those recovering from injury or surgery, and even folks who need temporary breaks through respite care, including hospice services for comfort and support when facing serious illness. Residents get three meals every day in the dining room or brought to their rooms, so there's no need to cook, and folks can visit the beauty salon, use the Wi-Fi, or relax in either private or semi-private rooms equipped with electric beds.
The care here covers wound care, pain management, tracheostomy care, IV therapy, and help for people with cardiac problems, respiratory illness, or those recovering from strokes and joint replacements. Nurses visit regularly, and there's a rapid response team focused on keeping everyone safe, supporting both mental and physical health. The center offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy for short or long stays, as well as nutritional guidance, and there's always someone to talk to for emotional needs. The activities include group programs and cognitive-based events meant to keep minds and bodies active, and community rooms give folks space to socialize and relax together. Residents' families take part in care decisions alongside staff, and all services are designed to match each person's individual needs.
With 52 units, the center offers enough space for people to have privacy while still enjoying a friendly and warm environment. There's private van transportation, help with all daily living tasks, and support for stroke or surgery recovery. The administrator, Nola Jones, leads a team that pays close attention to comfort, safety, and personalized care. Residents also have mental health help available and benefit from a collaborative approach to healthcare. The whole place aims to feel like home, helping people stay as independent and comfortable as possible, while making sure family members feel supported and involved in every part of care.
