The short-term rehabilitation services at Stone Pear Pavilion cater to individuals transitioning from hospital care after incidents such as stroke, heart attack, infection, or injury.

For long-term care residents, Stone Pear Pavilion supports individuals who require daily assistance with tasks such as moving, eating, dressing, and using the bathroom. A significant rate of residents maintain their ability to self-care during their stay, and nearly all residents receive annual influenza vaccinations. The facility tracks emergency room visits and prioritizes regular nursing oversight, though weekend staffing consistency is noted as an area for improvement compared to weekday coverage.
