Woburn Nursing Center

Types of Professionals and Training

Our staff includes Registered Nurses (RNs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), and Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) on each floor, accompanied by a unit manager and a unit coordinator. Every team member undergoes dementia training and participates in our education fair, which covers topics such as infection control, COVID-19 protocols, compliance and ethics, oxygen safety, active shooter procedures, and fire safety.

Safety and Well-being Measures

We ensure the safety and well-being of our residents by providing 24-hour staffing of nurses and CNAs. Additionally, we have a large activity/dining room managed by our activity team members.

Support for Transition into the Community

To aid residents' transition into the community, our social service director, Esther, and I meet with each resident upon admission.

Transportation Services

We offer transportation services with our own van and driver available Monday to Friday for local doctor appointments. We also have a contract with a chair car service and Armstrong ambulance for situations when our van is unavailable.

Dining Experience

Dining services include meals served in a large dining room. Residents also have the option to eat in their rooms. We plan to launch our point of service with steam tables in the upcoming weeks.

Complaint or Issue Resolution Process

If a resident has a complaint or issue, they can inform a staff member who will document the grievance and report it to the administrator for follow-up.

Cost of Living

The cost of living varies according to room type: private rooms are priced at $538.60 per day, while semi-private rooms cost $516.60 per day.

Communication with Residents' Families

We conduct an initial family meeting within the first week after admission, followed by quarterly care plan meetings to keep families updated on their loved ones' well-being.

Short-term or Respite Stays

We offer respite stays for a maximum of 2 weeks, charging $366.60 per day.

Pet Policy

While residents are not permitted to have their own pets, family members can visit with pets provided we have their vaccination records on file.

Waitlist Status

Currently, there is no waitlist. However, please note that we are undergoing construction for the next few months.

Vaccination Availability

Yes, residents can receive both COVID and flu vaccinations in our community.

Aging in Place

Aging in place generally refers to keeping residents in their homes instead of moving them to nursing care facilities; additional clarification may be required to understand specific community policies.
