Timber Ridge Health & Rehab Center sits just off Highway 190, right past First Bank and Trust, down a short driveway, and when you get inside, you'll see this place holds 114 beds in a skilled nursing facility, and the rooms come furnished with private bathrooms, cable TV, kitchenettes, telephones, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi, so residents have the basics for comfort, plus an emergency call system watches out for safety around the clock. People find walking paths and well-kept gardens outside to enjoy fresh air, and there's a game room, movie theater, activity room, fitness programs, music, arts, and scheduled daily programs inside, so life never feels lonely or dull, especially with resident-run and community-sponsored gatherings, and if you want a book, the library is a nice quiet place to sit for a while. Folks get restaurant-style meals all day in the dining room, and the kitchen can work around allergies and diabetic needs, all under the care of a professional chef, which makes eating easier and safer for everyone, and the wellness room and spa provide a bit of extra comfort if you need to relax or recover after some effort.
Skilled nursing care is available for long-term stays or as part of short-term rehab after hospital visits, illness, or surgery, and that means things like medication management, help with bathing or dressing, transfer assistance, plus 12 to 16 hours of active nursing care each day, all coordinated by a medical director, doctors, nurse practitioners, licensed nurses, dieticians, and pharmacists on staff who check in and adjust care as needed. Speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy happen on-site for those who need to regain strength or handle memory issues, and there's even a focus on chronic conditions and special memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's disease, not forgetting the need for nutritional counseling along the way. Timber Ridge accepts both Medicare and Medicaid for financial help, and the management, RightCare Management, has been handling things since August 2015, keeping the place accredited by the Joint Commission, holding an A+ on recent inspection ratings, no severe deficiencies, zero substantiated complaints so far this year, and generally maintaining steady quality with long-term and short-term care ratings landing at B+ or above for a good stretch now.
Move-in help, housekeeping, laundry, transportation, and parking are all there to take some weight off residents and families, and both resident and family councils give people a chance to talk about improvements or concerns, because the staff, made up of local folks with years of experience, aims to serve each resident and the community with respect and love, trying to keep life as home-like as possible no matter the level of care needed, even right up to end-of-life support when times get hard, so dignity and kindness remain central to care at Timber Ridge Health & Rehab Center.
