Skilled Nursing Facility
A Home
A nursing home isn’t just a facility where care is provided – it really is a home for its residents. Medina Memorial Hospital’s Skilled Nursing Home (commonly referred to as North Wing) is a home to elderly citizens in our community. We strive to make it a place where the safety and comfort of home comes first, with quality nursing care supporting this home environment.
Dignity and Respect
When you entrust the care of your elderly loved ones to others, you want to know that they will be cared for with dignity and respect. At our Skilled Nursing Home we have a core set of beliefs about resident’s rights that are the foundation of their care:
- They will be treated with dignity, self-determination, and respect.
- They will be given full recognition of their individuality.
- They will be given consideration and privacy in treatment.
- They will have all personal needs are met.
- They will have access to any desired communication with anyone they wish.
- These rights are at the center of the daily care of our residents. Individual care plans are developed according to the specific needs of each resident.
Activities
Our activities program is designed to increase the quality of life for each of our residents by allowing them to be as active and involved as they wish. Activities are offered daily, and residents can choose which to attend. These activities include field trips, weekly BINGO, crafts, theme days and much more.
Environment
We offer a homelike atmosphere including all new furnishings in the resident rooms, energy-efficient windows, an updated heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system to enhance the comfort of residents, and a new sprinkler system for improved safety. a beautiful four-season room has been added to give residents year-round access to a warm, comfortable public setting for social interaction with other residents and visitors. Our updated nursing station was added to provide for better visual monitoring of residents, in an open environment.
