Woodway Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center sits at 7801 Woodway Dr in Waco, Texas, and provides all sorts of care for seniors, including skilled nursing, assisted living, rehabilitation, memory care, independent living, and several home care options. The center's set up with 144 certified beds and usually has about 70 residents each day, with both private and semi-private rooms available, some coming with their own bathrooms, flat screen TVs, electric beds, WiFi, and cable. There's a beauty and barber shop, a park-like landscape with sitting areas, a family social room, a gym for rehabilitation, and daily programs like clubs, events, or just mealtimes that help folks stay social and active. Staff keep up with personal chores like housekeeping, and residents can bring their pets and use high-speed internet anywhere in the building.
Woodway Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center's run by Regent Management Services and managed by Momentum Skilled Services, while being owned by Coryell County Memorial Hospital Authority, and it's a for-profit company under LTC Houston Management LLC, WRHC LLC, and Sharlyn Threadgill since September 2024. The staff provides care 24 hours a day, and help people with bathing, dressing, medicine, and nursing needs, so folks with injuries, surgery recovery, long-term illness, or dementia like Alzheimer's can get the care they require, and medical supervision's always available. There are programs specifically for memory care to help seniors who have confusion or are at risk of wandering, as well as respite care for short stays and hospice care for end-of-life support. They also provide home care services (both medical and non-medical) and adult day programs for seniors who want to stay at home part of the time.
The center tries to keep residents comfortable and active, with activities, social dining, and outings in the local community, and structured programs to help each person stay as healthy and engaged as possible. They make sure the building is accessible with features for people with disabilities. Each resident has a care plan, and the healthcare team works together to make sure each person's needs-medical, emotional, or social-are met. Woodway Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center opened in 2003 and has a reputation for strong post-acute therapy after injury or surgery, especially for people who want to recover outside of a hospital but still need a high level of care. They've got specialized help for folks with chronic conditions, and they focus on individual treatment plans.
Despite plenty of services and amenities, inspection reports have shown some deficiencies. There have been problems with making and following care plans, and some issues with nursing and physician services, including not always having nurses and aides who meet skill requirements, which at times led to risks for residents' safety and health. There've also been times when the facility did not give the right treatment or follow the orders or preferences of some of the residents, which was considered immediate jeopardy for health or safety but didn't cause actual harm. The facility's been inspected and remains open, still working to provide compassionate, professional care to folks with changing needs.
