Residents
in our 245-bed facility enjoy a fulfilling life with around the clock
care and personalized attention in a nurturing atmosphere.
Each
resident's medical care is managed by an attending physician who
leads the clinical team which is composed of a licensed nurse,
certified nurse assistant, social worker, dietitian, recreational
assistant, speech, physical and occupational therapist. At Dawson,
the clinical team will assess your needs and develop an individualized
plan of care for you. Our nursing staff cares for your most basic
needs as well as a comprehensive range of skilled nursing services
including infusion therapy, advanced wound care, respiratory treatments,
hospice and respite programs.
Dawson
offers considerate dementia care for residents experiencing challenges
related to Alzheimer's disease or related dementias. For those
residents requiring rehabilitative services, we have a state-of-the-art
Rehabilitation Department. Dawson's experienced therapists treat
a wide range of deficits with good outcomes.
Social
workers are available to counsel residents experiencing difficulty adjusting
to unforeseen changes in their health or lifestyle.
Beyond
the day-to-day routine of nursing care, Dawson Nursing Center engages
our residents in an array of stimulating, therapeutic and simply enjoyable
experiences. Candlelit jazz supper clubs, theme parties and intergenerational
programs are particular favorites of our residents.
