Olympia Nursing Homes (Senior Information)

Facilities employ licensed physicians and nurses, certified nursing assistants, non-medical staff, social workers, therapists, specialists and food service personnel who work to deliver individualized care to each patient.

Monthly residency costs for Olympia skilled nursing facilities are quite a bit higher than the Washington state median. Private SNF rooms cost $10,038 per month, around $1,900 per month above the median. Semi-private SNF rooms run a monthly cost of $8,167, almost $900 per month higher than the state median.

In addition to the general types of nursing care, many facilities are prepared for more specific forms of patient care. Respite care focuses on strengthening the relationship between family or in home caregivers and their patients. Patients are admitted for short periods of stays to help relieve some of the emotional pressures of family care. Adult day health care gives family caregivers the peace of mind that their patient will be in a safe environment when they are away at work.

Patients looking for expert care for certain medical conditions should look for area specialized care programs. They admit patients for health concerns like memory loss. These programs are usually located separately from short-term or long-term amenities.

Short-term care gives rehabilitation services to patients who are coming from hospital care. They were most commonly victims of cardiac arrest, strokes, falls and aneurisms. Hospital care is usually a patient’s primary form of medical treatment. Quality care can give patients a proper foundation for the rest of their recovery. Olympia’s best health care services, based on patients’ recent hospital experiences, are offered by Providence St. Peter Hospital and Capital Medical Center. Newly admitted short-term patients are assessed by physicians who determine an appropriate course of recuperation. On a prescribed basis, patients go through respiratory, auditory, speech, physical or occupational therapy. The goal of short-term care is to help restore patients’ functions so they can relocate to a less inclusive care option. Discharged patients frequently move to in home residential care or an assisted living facility.

Long-term care provides an environment that helps patients stabilize or improve serious, progressive and chronic medical conditions. Patients are admitted for illnesses like diabetes mellitus, cancer, osteoarthritis, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s, dementia and emphysema. They may also be bedridden or have limited motor control due to paraplegia or mental health issues. Nursing personnel deal with complex symptoms by being alert and ready to administer all types of care. Doctors and nurses are available for 24 hour a day check-ups and to perform medical procedures like injections, dialysis, enteral feeding tubes, CPR, wound care, ostomy care and medication adjustment. Non-medical personnel aid patients with certain activities of daily living, like dressing, bathing, feeding, grooming and traveling.

Medicare offers supplemental assistance to cover some of the cost of nursing care. Those already on Social Security or are disabled are eligible to receive Medicare benefits. For seniors and patients that may be covered by Medicare, they should be aware of the limitations, provisions and requirements of the program. Medicare does not give assistance to patients who only need custodial care. They must have stayed under hospital care for at least three days before transferring to a SNF and must receive care for a problem that was diagnosed by hospital physicians. 20 days of nursing care is fully covered by the program. The next 80 days of nursing care are charged a daily copayment fee. Calling your State Financial Intermediary or State Health Insurance Assistance Program can give you more information about the program.
