Albany Skilled Nursing Facilties | Assited Living

Short-term nursing care focuses on assisting the rehabilitation of patients with acute health problems. Around 75 percent of short-term patients were recently hospitalized for an acute medical event, the most common being strokes, falls and aneurisms. Nursing professionals map out a course of action that aims to get patients to lower levels of care as efficiently as possible. This often includes the use of occupational, physical, speech, auditory or respiratory therapy. After a short-term nursing stay, patients who will need further medical treatment often move to in home care or assisted living care arrangements.

Future short-term nursing patients should attempt to receive the best possible hospital care they can, under the circumstances. Quality hospital care, delivered by skilled doctors, can shorten a patient’s recovery process. Albany’s best health care services, based on surveys of patients’ previous hospital experiences, are offered by St. Peter’s Hospital and Seton Health System – St. Mary’s Campus.

Long-term care patients usually seek treatment because their condition is in a deteriorating state. These patients have moderate to severe physical and mental disabilities, like Parkinson’s, dementia, cardiovascular disease and hypothyroidism, or are in general decline. Caregivers are available around-the-clock to respond to the extensive needs of each patient. Doctors and nurses give regular check-ups and execute medical skills like colostomies, tracheostomies, medicine adjustments, blood work, wound care and injections. Non-medical staff aid patients with eating, washing, dressing, traveling and other activities of daily living. Nursing homes also care for patients’ social well-being by giving patients opportunities for leisure and independence, like events, activities, games and trips.

Albany skilled nursing facility costs are very close to the New York state median. Semi-private and private nursing home accommodations cost $9,901 and $10,342 per month, respectively. Assisted living care bedrooms cost $4,340 per month. Homemaker services, home health aide and adult day health care bear monthly costs of $4,198, $4,385 and $1,083, respectively.

Many seniors and their families think of nursing care as a situation to avoid. In today’s world, many seniors tell their adult children that they never want to be put in a nursing home. They feel that, at the mercy of nursing personnel, they will be given neglectful or abusive care. There have been reports of improper care in certain nursing homes. This often results from poorly-trained caregivers. They may overuse restraining techniques or medications when seniors become disoriented under the effects of their illnesses. Patients need to understand that these cases are few and far in between. Many skilled nursing facilities put the treatment and health of their patients as their number one priority. Compassionate, well-trained, attentive, vigilant and committed personnel understand the difficulties patients and family members must endure. They are there to provide support every step of the way.
