Senior Care Center - Brunswick sits inside a hospital and belongs to Southeast Georgia Health System, serving the senior community with different levels of care such as independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for those with cognitive problems, and hospice and palliative care for those reaching the end of life. The center has 200 certified beds and about 101 residents, so you'll see a 51% occupancy. The staff counts registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, and therapy staff, all covering shifts around the clock, which means residents get help day and night for things like medication management, wound care, and disease management, and caregivers help with daily living needs. Each resident gets a care plan designed just for them by a whole team, and there are social service programs and activity programs running for engagement along with family and resident council meetings where concerns and suggestions get shared. Residents can schedule tours to meet staff and see how things work.
The facility is fully sprinklered for fire safety, and it's fitted with modern medical equipment and alert devices. You'll see housekeeping with laundry service and an on-site beauty shop, plus nutritious meals and snacks served daily. The place offers things like social events, spiritual support, and transportation to appointments so families can feel included and up to date. Folks needing advanced care can get help such as urethral, catheter, colostomy, and wound care, as well as tube feeding and infusion therapy, speech, occupational, and physical therapy, and pharmacy and lab services. If someone needs dental or podiatry checks, those happen through nurses who arrange the appointments. There's also coverage for medical transportation and help with complex care such as Alzheimer's disease, end-of-life comfort, and specialty rehab after a hospital stay.
The center works under the city or county government and accepts Medicaid and Medicare, which can ease payment worries for some families. Over the years, official inspection ratings have ranged quite a bit, going from F to as high as A, but a recent government inspection gave a nearly flawless A-minus. The care community keeps up with important vaccinations like influenza and pneumococcal, which matters for senior health. Internet and cable help keep residents connected, and the rooms are private and equipped for comfort and safety. The center doesn't belong to a big chain or continuing care retirement network, and while it has a high bed count at low occupancy, it carries out its mission with services built for older adults who want support at different stages, whether for rehab, help at home, respite stays, or full-time care. Services come through a partnership with Georgia Senior Healthcare Services, and families or residents can expect a straightforward environment focused on needs and well-being.
