Hillview Terrace

Hillview Terrace sits in Montgomery, Alabama and has a license for 143 beds, usually serving around 137 people a day, and the place's been run by Schmidt Wallace Healthcare Management Company, Inc since October 2001, with Libby Alford joining in September 2022, and the facility's affiliated with Rehab Select, which folks might recognize. There's a mix of services here, including long-term nursing home care, Skilled Nursing Facility, short-term rehab, and help for those needing nursing assistance, and they let you pick from different options like Adult Care Home, Assisted Living, Independent Living, Memory Care, and Home Care, which includes Home Health, Hospice, and Support & Referrals. People staying here can get pretty specialized medical support, like tracheostomy care, IV management, Alzheimer's Care, Bariatric Care, Cancer Care, Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation, Diabetes Management, Pain Management, and Wound Care, and there's a dedicated COVID Recovery Program, too. Hillview Terrace has a 24-hour RN staff, physical therapy doctor (physiatrist) on-site, and offers therapy services up to seven days a week and for up to three hours a day, which helps with things like stroke rehab, orthopedic physical therapies, post-surgical recovery, IV therapy, and even vocational rehab for those who need it, and it has the gear for things like IV antibiotics, TPN administration, Life-Vest defibrillator use, and can care for up to four patients who have tracheostomies, with rounds by a vascular surgeon for wound care and weekly visits from a psychiatrist and psychologist. Staff at Hillview Terrace aren't contract workers-they're permanent employees who offer one-on-one care, and people usually comment on the caring staff and well-trained caregivers, but the nurse turnover rate sits at 48.5%, just a bit more than the state average, though staffing levels are better than average, clocking in at 4.40 nurse hours per resident per day compared to 3.9 statewide. The place isn't new to inspections either, with 16 total deficiencies noted in past inspection reports-two of these were for infection-and the home's been found lacking in having a complete infection prevention program and in safe food sourcing and handling, which inspectors say could've meant more than just minor harm, and the last standard inspection was done more than two years ago, which is longer than the usual schedule of every 9 to 15 months. Accommodations come with dining and activity options plus safety and security measures, with chances for community engagement where folks can take part in various programs, and the facility supports both short-term rehab and long-term care needs, plus it offers resources for comparing options and even has a virtual tour for those who want to check out the place from home. Specialty programs address things like memory care, dialysis, respite care, Alzheimer's, bariatric needs, worker's comp, and counseling, while the professional portal and resource library support doctor and home referrals. Hillview Terrace keeps its services distinct-whether a person needs around-the-clock long-term support, transitional care, wound management, or occupational, speech, and physical therapies, you'll find staff ready to support a wide variety of health and personal care needs.
