Arbor Trail Rehab and Skilled Nursing Center, also known as Sovereign Healthcare of Inverness, LLC, sits at 611 E Turner Camp Rd in Inverness, Florida, and provides both short-term rehabilitation and long-term skilled nursing care for seniors and adults who need constant medical supervision. This nursing home and rehab center has 116 certified beds with private and semi-private rooms, letting people choose what fits their needs, and while the covered entrance and lobby area help with day-to-day comfort, there are other simple amenities like a salon, a rehabilitation gym, and an outdoor visitation area. There's always a nurse on duty and a physician on staff. The center runs 24/7 to make sure help is available all the time. Staff give basic nursing care, pass medicine, help residents with daily tasks like dressing and bathing, and support them with meals and personal hygiene. The nurse hours per resident per day is 3.52, which sits a bit below the Florida state average, and the nursing turnover rate at 59.1% is higher than what's typical for the state.
The center offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy for people recovering from illness, surgery, or hospital stays, and therapy programs can run up to seven days a week, with specialty clinical programs in wound care, infection prevention, and using specialized equipment. There's a Post COVID-19 Recovery Program for people coming out of the hospital, and staff use telemedicine systems to help manage care at any hour of the day or night. Arbor Trail also helps people who have specific needs, like those with urinary tract infections, gastrointestinal problems, contractures, and pressure sores. The team manages wound care, monitors chronic health conditions, provides medication management, and works to help skin integrity by using things like heel protectors and regular checks for sores.
Residents can join community living rooms, spend time outside, or enjoy walks or social time, which helps with social engagement and feeling part of a community, and the center works to build personalized care plans to match each person's needs. Arbor Trail accepts Medicare and Medicaid based on individual requirements, and helps guide families through the process of securing a room by working with a senior living advisor. The facility is for-profit, managed by Southern Healthcare Management LLC since 2003, and owned by Sovereign Healthcare Holdings LLC.
Arbor Trail is part of the HCA Florida Plus Care Network, which helps share information to help patients and families make choices based on facts. This nursing home and skilled nursing facility has a Medicare rating of 3 out of 5 stars, which means "average" based on inspections, staffing, and health results. The most recent inspections did report deficiencies about infection control and pharmacy labeling, and there have been past citations about privacy concerns when providing care, skin breakdown prevention, and medication errors. For instance, inspectors noted that sometimes residents weren't given privacy during certain procedures, and care plans for wounds and infection weren't always followed properly. Arbor Trail's recent history includes federal fines totaling about $10,000 for health and safety concerns, and there have been lawsuits related to alleged neglect or care problems, including problems with wound and catheter care.
Even so, Arbor Trail shows it wants to improve life quality by working on care programs, training, and facility updates, and it tries to maintain residents' dignity with kindness, respect, and specialized programs. Arbor Trail is certified by The Joint Commission and provides care options for both short-term rehabilitation needs and people needing permanent, full-time care, with opportunities for social and recreational activities to support comfort and well-being.
