Many people wonder what takes place at a skilled nursing facility as well as who needs the services provided there. Here are a few details that can help you understand the function of a skilled nursing facility such as Santé.

What is skilled nursing?

Our post-acute skilled nursing facilities provide inpatient care for those recovering after an acute-care stay in the hospital. During this time, patients are able to receive recovery-specific therapy in a caring environment that helps to ease the recovery process. They also receive assistance with treatment and medication administration, meal preparation, housekeeping, and other daily needs while they rebuild their strength. At Santé, each of our locations is also designed with safety in mind, so that our patients do not encounter potential hazards that may exist at home during their recovery.
