The approach at Metairie Health Care Center emphasizes individualized attention, focusing on fostering the best possible health outcomes for every resident. For those in need of post-acute care following an illness, injury, or surgery, the center’s team delivers physician-prescribed medical interventions that address complex medical conditions and maximize recovery. Central to the rehabilitation philosophy is the creation of a dedicated therapy environment designed not just for traditional therapy, but also for engagement with activities of daily living that are relevant to the home and community life patients will return to. This holistic environment helps patients regain confidence and independence, playing a significant role in swift, successful transitions back to their own homes.
In support of its transitional care and short-term stays, Metairie Health Care Center offers a separate area reserved specifically for those recovering and preparing for home discharge. The increased frequency of daily therapy—offered up to six days per week—aims to maximize functional abilities and minimize time spent away from home. With a full range of skilled nursing and long-term care services also available, the facility ensures that those requiring extended support will also find comprehensive and compassionate care.
Family partnership is an integral part of the care model at Metairie Health Care Center.
