Intercommunity
Care Center is a 147 bed Skilled Nursing Facility which specializes in providing care
to the confused, wandering, geriatric person. The facility provides a
secured environment. The main entrance doors and perimeter fences are
locked permitting residents to wander throughout the facility and its
outside walkways and patios, while maintaining as safe an environment as
possible. Persons who are combative, who would climb fences or continually
attempt to leave the facility would not be suitable candidates for
admission.
Nursing Care
Twenty-four hour Skilled Nursing Care is provided through the use of registered nurses, licensed
vocational nurses and certified nursing assistants.
Activities
A full-time activity program provides activities geared to this type of resident both in interest and
ability. Individual and group, as well as indoor and outdoor activities are available. For details, please refer to
the activity calendars which are posted throughout the facility and on the back of our monthly newsletter.
Social Services
There is a full-time social service person on duty five days a week. A clinical social worker is
available on a consulting basis. These persons handle problems of a psychosocial nature.
Dietary
The dietary department provides balanced diets as ordered by the attending physician. A full-time
dietary service supervisor and a consulting registered dietitian assure high quality and accuracy for regular and
therapeutic diets.
