At Hiawatha Care Center, residents receive comprehensive 24-hour professional nursing care delivered by an experienced and qualified team. This team encompasses nurses, nursing assistants, a social worker, a dietician, an activity director, and consulting professionals, including a pharmacist and specialists in physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The involvement of an outstanding medical director further enhances the quality of medical oversight available to each resident. Collaborative efforts among this interdisciplinary team ensure that care plans are individualized, adaptable, and continually focused on promoting the health and comfort of every person in residence.
In addition to medical and therapeutic services, Hiawatha Care Center is attentive to the social and emotional needs of residents. The center fosters connections with family and friends by providing access to video calling technologies such as Zoom, Duo, and Facetime.

The Activity Department, with Hannah Waters as a key contact, supports residents and their loved ones in making the most of these virtual communication options and ensures that everyone stays connected, especially during important events and moments. Regular newsletters and calendars keep residents and their families informed about special events and opportunities for engagement, further strengthening the sense of community.
