Las Palmas Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation sits at 369 Mars Dr in Cotulla, Texas, and serves the area in La Salle County with a warm, steady approach to care for older adults, and you'll find a focus on both short-term rehabilitation and long-term nursing care here, which means folks recovering from illness or injury have a spot to land between hospital and home, while those with chronic health needs or severe frailty can settle in for ongoing support, and the nurses work around the clock with caregivers who help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management every day, so residents don't have to struggle on their own. You'll see fully furnished studio rooms with private bathrooms, and the dining team prepares meals restaurant-style, honoring special diets for things like diabetes, while support teams handle meal prep for those who need it. Las Palmas suits memory care needs, too, as staff are trained to assist residents with dementia, and the mental wellness programs offer a little extra for those who could use it, along with community events, resident-run groups, and planned trips for those who want a change of scenery, so there's always something to do if you're up for it.
Rehabilitation means people have therapy options, like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, right on site, and people with wounds or needing recovery from surgery or an illness can get the care they need without going elsewhere. Las Palmas is part of the Touchstone community, and staff here work on personalized care plans and often involve families in decision making, always trying to meet each person where they are, whether that's with more involved skilled nursing care, help with recovery, or extra attention for memory struggles. The facility includes shared and private gathering spaces, a small library, a beauty salon, a fitness room, computer center, a games room, garden, and outdoor places to relax or walk, so you won't feel cramped or without a spot for quiet.
Transportation's available for medical trips and other errands, plus there's community lounges and a strong focus on safety, including strict Covid protocols for everyone's health, which families have come to expect from a place with a good reputation in Texas. Respite care is offered for those needing short-term stays or a break for caregivers at home, and the team has earned accreditations for quality, with a trusted place in a respected health system. The atmosphere is friendly, and the staff takes time to give personal, compassionate support-which is clear if you visit, meet the staff, or talk to folks who live there-because the goal's always been to make life as comfortable and manageable as possible for each resident, regardless of why they've come to call Las Palmas home.
