Macon Skilled Nursing Centers

The varying health issues of nursing patients are encompassed by the two most general forms of nursing care, long-term and short-term care. Certain institutions also offer specialized care for patients with specific diagnoses, like spinal injuries or diabetes.

Short-term care deals with patients who are recovering from falls, surgeries, heart attacks, strokes and other acute medical crises. The main objective of this type of care is to help patients improve their health to a point where they can seek less comprehensive care. A majority of short-term patients were hospitalized prior to nursing care. Nursing professionals walk patients down a personalized path of recuperation. Patients utilize various forms of rehabilitation, including physical, speech, occupational and respiratory therapy, to return their functioning to pre-crisis levels. Once patients are discharged from a short-term stay, many move to in home or assisted living care for additional medical treatment.

Quality hospital care can jumpstart future short-term patients’ recoveries. Patients should try to find the best possible hospital care because of the effect it may have on their eventual recovery. The hospitals with the highest ratings in Macon, based on patients’ hospital experiences, are Medical Center of Central Georgia and Coliseum Northside Hospital.

Long-term care concentrates on the provision of advanced forms of care for patients who have moderate to severe mental or physical disabilities like Parkinson’s, hypertension, kidney disease, cancer, multiple sclerosis or dementia. Patients often look for long-term care to stabilize or reverse a declining medical condition. The individual needs of each patient are met through a collective effort on part of all members of a facility’s team of nursing personnel. Nurses and physicians offer 24 hour a day monitoring and perform medical procedures like medication adjustments, injections, intravenous therapy, colostomies, wound care and routine check-ups. Non-medical staff are present to assist patients with custodial care needs and general hygiene. Social workers and recreational planners attempt to give patients companionship, independence and reassurance by getting to know patients and coordinating social activities like trips, games and dinners.

Macon skilled nursing facility care costs around $300 per month more than the Georgia median. Private and semi-private nursing home accommodations cost $5,627 and $5,171 per month, respectively. Homemaker services and home health aide both run a monthly cost of $3,051. Assisted living care bedrooms cost $2,565 per month.

Trying to find quality nursing care can seem daunting at first. It helps to have certain criteria in mind when you are researching. One of the most effective ways of differentiating between homes to narrow in on the ones that are suitable is to personally visit the facilities. Visits help patients meet staff and other patients. You will be able to tell whether patients and staff seem happy or content with the care being provided. You will also be able to see amenities and rooms first-hand. In general, nursing homes that have a bright, friendly and upbeat atmosphere are more likely to deliver proper care.
