Southport Health and Rehabilitation Center sits at 630 Fodale Avenue in Southport, North Carolina, and you'll find a mix of services here for seniors who may need assisted living, skilled nursing, short-term rehab, memory care, independent living, and respite care, all bundled together under one roof. The center runs with a team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants who are there 24/7 to help with medication, wound care, IV therapy, and daily tasks like bathing, dressing, housekeeping, and laundry, and folks can choose between semi-private or private rooms, with options like in-room dining and WiFi that helps give things more of a homely feel. People coming out of surgery, stroke, or a heart problem can use the outpatient therapy and dedicated rehab unit, which includes a therapy gym, Activities of Daily Living Suite, and other enhanced services like diathermy and electrical stimulation.
For people with memory challenges, there are special memory care services and support, and the staff can help manage medicines and safety with emergency response systems and reminders. The center features a garden and outdoor spaces, a hot tub spa, salon services, and welcomes pets, which is nice if someone wants more normalcy. Social and spiritual activities give residents something to do each day, and the place works with person-centered care plans made by its clinical team, aiming to avoid hospital readmissions when possible, and discharge planning helps folks and families plan for going back home or to another setting. Southport Health and Rehabilitation Center is set up with 99 skilled nursing facility beds and ties in plenty of medical support-like wound care physicians, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and special help for Alzheimer's. The community's part of the North Carolina Health Care Facilities Association and Cape Fear Regional Council of Governments, and you can find information and caregiver resources, as well as its details on a website and even an app. Amenities include places for people to gather, both outdoors and in, with garden areas, social rooms, and private rooms, plus transportation services for medical appointments. Housekeeping keeps the place tidy, and for those in need of hospice or palliative care, staff are there to help. The center also makes use of technology to keep things safe and connected, so families and residents can stay a little closer in touch if needed.
