Garden Terrace Healthcare Center is a medium-sized, for-profit senior living and healthcare facility with a capacity of 116 beds. The center operates under corporate ownership and participates in both Medicare and Medicaid programs, making it accessible to a wide range of residents with different financial and healthcare needs. It is not part of a continuing care retirement community, meaning it focuses primarily on providing nursing and rehabilitation services without the broader continuum of care options found in some larger senior living campuses.
The care home serves residents who need both short-term rehabilitation following a hospital stay and those requiring long-term nursing care. Its short-term rehabilitation services are designed for patients recovering from significant health events such as strokes, heart attacks, infections, or injuries, with the goal of helping them regain their independence as much as possible. The long-term care services support residents with daily activities and routine medical needs, including medication administration, assistance with dressing, eating, and personal hygiene.
Nurse staffing at Garden Terrace Healthcare Center averages approximately 2 hours and 52 minutes per resident per day, and its weekend staffing levels are rated as consistently strong compared to weekday coverage. The majority of residents—over 86 percent—are able to maintain the ability to move independently, eat, and manage other common daily tasks without constant assistance. Seasonal flu vaccination rates among the residents reach 100 percent. Emergency room visits are monitored closely, with about 2.9 visits per 1,000 patient days among long-term residents and 17.3 percent of short-term residents requiring emergency care during their stays.
The center’s facilities have been subject to routine state inspections, which include reviews of health, food safety, pharmaceutical practices, and the accuracy of resident assessments and care planning. Inspection reports from previous years document that almost all identified issues were considered to have a low potential for harm and affected only a few or some residents. Most records indicate that cited issues were promptly addressed and resolved. The center also underwent a fire safety inspection in June 2023, meeting relevant National Fire Protection Association standards.
Garden Terrace Healthcare Center is a community-focused facility that makes efforts to ensure residents receive appropriate healthcare, nutrition, and assistance while maintaining high immunization rates and supporting their independence wherever possible. The care home’s approach seeks to combine medical oversight, personal assistance, and consistent nurse staffing to meet the varied needs of its residents. It remains an option for individuals in need of either temporary rehabilitation or sustained nursing care under Medicare or Medicaid coverage.
