Northern Surry is home to the Northern Skilled Nursing Center, which has been providing compassionate care for senior residents since 1993. This 33-bed unit is designed to meet the needs of those requiring extended assistance, whether on a permanent or temporary basis, such as after surgery or illness. Residents benefit from private rooms, offering both the comfort of solitude and the community of engaging scheduled activities and lively entertainment throughout the week.
The center caters to both long-term residents and short-term rehabilitation patients, ensuring individualized attention and support. Patients working toward recovery have access to in-house therapists provided by Northern Rehab, specializing in physical, occupational, and speech therapies. These therapy services are integrated into each patient’s care plan, allowing for continuity and effective progress toward personal health goals. The presence of an on-staff physician ensures that residents’ medical needs are addressed promptly and professionally, further supported by an onsite Social Worker who assists with any necessary social or emotional support.
Life at the Northern Skilled Nursing Center emphasizes well-being through carefully coordinated activities and care. The center’s dedicated staff strive to provide a nurturing environment where residents can maintain their independence and dignity while benefiting from round-the-clock assistance. Whether a resident is staying for rehabilitation or choosing the center as a permanent home, the focus remains on fostering quality of life, comfort, and a sense of belonging within the Mount Airy community.
