Palisade Healthcare Center provides skilled nursing care, rehabilitation, and memory care in a safe setting, mostly for older adults and people with Alzheimer's disease or other memory problems. The center offers both short-term rehab for people who need to recover between hospital and home, and long-term care for those who need more help every day. You'll find private and semiprivate rooms, a dementia unit, internet, and even a barbershop here, along with some independent living apartments. The staff includes nurses like CNAs, LPNs, and RNs, and the team's experienced with caring for very frail people who depend on nursing care. The facility is a nonprofit and part of the EmpRes group, and they're licensed as a nursing home, plus they accept Medicaid, and are certified by both Medicare and Medicaid.
There are services for physical, occupational, and speech therapy, including inpatient and outpatient support and restorative therapy, and they can handle peritoneal dialysis. The center also offers palliative and hospice care. Folks with dementia benefit from memory care in a home-like place where staff aim to meet both physical and emotional needs, with care plans tailored for each resident. Palisade Healthcare Center operates as a Continuing Care Retirement Community, so people can choose assisted living, independent living, nursing home care, home care, respite care, or adult day care, depending on what's needed. Activities and outings run through the recreation department, and you'll see regular social events and an online newsletter to keep everyone connected, with opening hours from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm daily, and people are welcome to schedule tours to get a feel for things and meet the staff and other residents.
