Lynchburg Skilled Nursing Facilities - Homes

Nursing care is broken down into two general categories, short-term care and long-term care. Some Lynchburg skilled nursing facilities offer specialized care that treats a specific health issue, like memory loss or cardiovascular disease.

Short-term care patients are in need of rehabilitation services to recover from the ill effects of heart attacks, falls, strokes, aneurisms and other acute medical crises. Temporary residents are typically admitted to nursing care after being hospitalized for a few days. Under short-term care, patients are treated with the intent to help them regain strength and function. Nursing professionals often design plans of recovery that are based around the provision of physical, occupational, speech or respiratory therapy sessions. Patients do not seek to fully recover in a short-term nursing stay. Many move on to assisted living or in home care for that objective.

Hospital care is often a future short-term nursing patient’s first contact with medical treatment. Quality hospital care can go a long way in helping patients properly recuperate down the road. Lynchburg’s best health care services, based on patients’ previous hospital experiences, can be found at Centra Health, Inc.

Long-term care concentrates on providing optimal treatment to patients with chronic or serious medical conditions. Patients often look to nursing care to stabilize or reverse a deteriorating problem. Residents suffer from illnesses and diagnoses like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, cancer, multiple sclerosis, kidney disease or general physical or mental decline. Facility caregivers are responsible for responsive and extensive treatment of the complex and elaborate symptoms of each patient. Doctors and nurses administer medical procedures like routine check-ups, colostomies, tracheostomies, injections, medication adjustment, intravenous therapy and wound care. Non-medical personnel are on hand for patients’ continuous custodial care needs. Social workers attempt to stimulate social independence and interaction through companionship, events, activities, games and trips.

Nursing care costs in Lynchburg fall near the national average but well under the Virginia state median. Private SNF rooms cost $5,840 per month, over $1,000 per month lower than the state median. Semi-private SNF rooms bear a monthly cost of $5,475, nearly $600 per month less than the median.

Seniors who are looking for quality nursing homes should be aware that certain facilities have a background of providing improper care practices or poorly run amenities. There are many resources available for seniors and their families to research homes they are interested in so they do not end up in nursing care that could lead to further medical problems or emotional distress. States are required to log nursing home complaints on through their searchable online database. If you need help interpreting this information or have question regarding any other aspects of nursing care, your local long-term care ombudsman is an excellent tool to utilize. He or she is an expert on local area facilities. Ombudsmen advise patients on ways to find affordable care providers and advocate for patients’ rights and proper care practices.
