Rockport Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits about 2.8 miles outside the town of Rockport, Texas, and runs as a large, non-profit nursing home managed by Regency IHS of Rockport LLC since 2018, with ties to Wellsential Health. The facility has 92 certified beds and usually cares for about 77 residents each day. The staff provides around 2.99 nurse hours for each resident per day and offers a range of care, including skilled nursing, long-term care, hospice, home health, memory care, and post-acute rehabilitation. They accept Medicare and Medicaid, so families have some support when paying for stays. Residents have access to private bathrooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a kitchenette, and their own phone in the rooms, which come in studio layouts with a choice of private or semi-private space. The center features outdoor common areas, walking paths, a community garden, and gardens, so seniors who like fresh air have options to spend their time outside.
Indoors, you'll find arts and activity rooms, a library, game rooms, a spa, and a fitness room. There's a beauty salon, too. The kitchen serves restaurant-style dining, prepares special diets for allergies and diabetes, and takes care of all standard meal service needs. They handle all the laundry, housekeeping, and dry cleaning as well. Staff help residents with daily needs like bathing, dressing, transferring, and managing medicines. There's an emergency alert system and someone keeps watch at all hours. For transportation, the center provides services so folks can run errands or make appointments, and there's parking for visitors. Out in the community rooms or outdoors, seniors can join in scheduled daily activities, movie nights, music programs, and community-sponsored events. There's a secure memory support unit for women and specialized support for those with Alzheimer's or dementia.
The therapy and rehabilitation team offers help with physical, speech, occupational therapy, and outpatient therapy, including care after surgery, for strokes, joint replacements, wounds, and more. The center is set up for special medical needs, too, like cardiac care, pulmonary care, tube feeding, respiratory therapy, stroke care, and orthopedic recovery. VitalStim Therapy is available, and those who need help after a hospital stay find short-term rehab until they're steady enough to return home. The home health and hospice services give extra support to those preferring care at home or those facing tough illnesses. The center keeps up with federal infection control standards, has a nurse turnover rate of 57.7%, and has had deficiencies on some recent inspections-three about infection control and fifteen total listed, so families should ask questions about staffing, care standards, and how the center addresses any concerns. The community says they're committed to treating everyone like family, focusing on comfort and care throughout their time at the center.
