Skilled nursing is a comprehensive care service designed to serve patients
who need long-term care as well as patients in need of short-term rehabilitation.
Patients receive skilled nursing care while staying in a hospital or skilled
nursing facility- although some patients can receive the service in their
own home. This way, they can receive round-the-clock care from an experienced
team that has full access to each patient’s medical information.
Many different patients can benefit from skilled nursing care. Some conditions treated by skilled nursing services include:
-
Chronic aches and pains
-
Recovery from surgery
-
Chronic health conditions such as lung disease or cancer
-
Serious injuries that require rehabilitation
-
Neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s
-
Infected or non-healing wounds
Skilled Nursing vs. Nursing Home Care
It is important to keep in mind that skilled nursing care is different
from nursing home care. A skilled nursing facility is not intended to
serve as a patient’s place of residence. While they offer long-term
care services, it is with the understanding that this is a temporary arrangement
as a patient undergoes rehabilitation or recovers from an injury or illness.
The key difference between nursing homes and skilled nursing is that skilled
nursing is a service that can take place in various settings, while a
nursing home is a facility where people receive care because they have
chosen to live there.
Some of the services we provide include:
- Registered Nursing
- Licensed Vocational Nursing
- Certified Nursing Aides
- Physical Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Speech Therapy
- Respiratory Therapy
- Restorative Nursing
- Skin/Wound Care

At Bella Sera, we understand that being away from home is difficult but we strive to make our residents and families feel at home and to feel that they are a part of the team managing their care. Whether your needs are short term or long term placement, we partner with the resident and family to ensure that our residents are given the best care possible right here in the community.
