Pet Policy

Pets can visit with proper documentation of shot records, but cannot reside permanently within the facility.

Aging in Place

Patients can age in place as we are a nursing home, not an assisted living facility. We do not have a waitlist and currently have bed availability for both short term rehabilitation and long term care. Please note, all of our rooms are shared, with the few private rooms currently occupied.
