Skyview Center

Skyview Center sits up in the hills of Wallingford, Connecticut, at 35 Marc Dr, and has cared for a lot of folks for many years with a warm, steady hand. This place takes care of complex patients, has both Short-Stay Rehabilitation and Long-Term Care, and looks after people who need skilled nursing, wound management, pain control, dialysis, or ventilator care. There's a clinic where physicians work, and the rehabilitation team doesn't just help inside-residents can practice walking outside on the hills and learn how to get around different places safely. Skyview Center looks after folks who need help with memory, too, because there's a special Alzheimer's care program, and there's a Transitional Care Unit for people who need extra support moving from hospital to home. Residents can join specialty programs and enjoy activities like the "Jazz Under the Stars" events, which let everyone visit and talk outside in the evening, and there's inter-generational work with local kids and neighbors, which keeps things lively for people of any age. Staff stay on all day and night, making sure families can visit whenever they want, and the building has accessibility features to help them get around. There's a big focus here on letting folks make choices and be as independent as they can, and care plans are built to fit each person's needs and hopes, whether that's through speech, occupational, or physical therapy. The center's known for having a patient-centered way about it, aiming to help everyone keep a good quality of life, and the staff keep things respectful and caring. The place has won the Bronze National Quality Award from the American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living, and if you want to see what it looks like you can take a virtual tour. Skyview Center uses Meta AI and Meta Quest technology, lets visitors log in with Facebook or other Meta platforms, and works with local groups to help people find housing, services, and community support. The company is privately held, employs about 51 to 200 people, and keeps its doors open 24 hours, every day, providing short and long-term stay options and a range of healthcare and social services for older adults.
