Melbourne Skilled Nursing Centers / In HOme Nursing Care

Short-term care consists of various forms of rehabilitation to help patients recover from acute medical trauma like a stroke, heart attack, fall, aneurism or surgery. While in the hospital, patients are typically required to move to nursing care by their doctor. Nursing care tries to achieve enough of an improvement in health for patients to move to less comprehensive care. They continue a patient’s recovery process by prescribing a professionally designed plan of recuperation, which often includes occupational, speech, respiratory or physical therapy. After a short-term visit, many patients still need additional medical treatment in the form of assisted living, in home or other lower level of care.

Hospital care important for around 75 percent of all short-term nursing visits. Quality hospital care can help shorten the amount of time patients will need to spend in a nursing facility. According to patients’ hospital experiences, top notch health care services in Melbourne can be found at Holmes Regional Medical Center and Wuesthoff Medical Center – Melbourne.

Long-term care admits patients in need of extensive and extended forms of skilled care. Many of these patients seek such care due to deteriorating circumstances in their existing conditions. Nursing professionals manage, evaluate and observe medical conditions like Alzheimer’s, diabetes, kidney disease, cancer and multiple sclerosis. They work to restore or maintain the health of long-term patients through responsive care and by helping patients be as comfortable as possible. Nurses and doctors are on call for 24/7 health monitoring and perform medical procedures like blood testing, medication adjustment, injections, colostomies, wound care and dialysis. Non-medical staff assist patients with activities of daily living, like dressing, washing, traveling and eating, and other basic hygiene needs. Social workers and recreational planners try to keep patients socially engaged through daily visits, events, games, dinners and outings.

The monthly costs for residency at a Melbourne skilled nursing facility fall over the national average and over the Florida median level. Private SNF rooms run a cost of $7,422 per month, about $400 per month above the state median. Semi-private SNF accommodations cost $6,600 per month, in line with the median.
