Our Care and Services

How We Provide Care
We have nurses on duty 24 hours a day, and our medical director is always on call. We provide rehabilitation services six days a week—or more often if ordered by a physician.

Our interdisciplinary team of professionals—nurses, rehabilitation therapists, dietitian, social worker, activities director, and others—determines the care each resident needs and how to provide it. Our residents play an important role in planning their care, too.

We work with our short-term rehabilitation patients to set reasonable recovery goals, based on their specific medical condition and personal needs. Our focus is on helping them become more knowledgeable about their condition, more actively involved in their own healthcare, and more independent in performing daily activities.

For extended-stay residents, we provide skilled nursing services and assistance with the activities of daily living. We’ve created a caring, safe, and supportive environment and offer a diverse and engaging lineup of social and recreational activities. Our goal is to foster a sense of family, connection, and community.

  • Testimonials
    Here’s what our residents and their family members say about us:

    "I would like to leave my love and thanks as I leave to go home. I couldn't have found a better place this side of heaven to recuperate and get well. Everyone was so caring and compassionate. I have made many friends here and I will miss you all.

    I would highly recommend anyone to come to this facility for care and therapy. Thank you."

    A former patient



    "IHow can I ever put into words the love and respect I have for all of you wonderful people for the great way you cared for me in my rehabilitation. Where else can anyone go to recover from back surgery-and actually enjoy it!

    Yours is a wonderful, skilled, cheery, and very caring staff. You provide happiness when appropriate and professional care when needed. What a blessing it was to be in your hands at such a crucial time.

    I especially want to thank those 'assigned' to me on Unit 700 and from P.T. and O.T. …all truly angels, who went out of their way to make sure I was safe and comfortable…I know there were many other nurses and CNAs who treated me so well.

    Credit for much of my quick recovery can surely go to my OT with so many helpful suggestions and helps to do for myself at home, and my PT, who walked around with me in my walker and gave me such encouragement and therapy help-and those who filled-in on their days off. They just knew my every need. They definitely are special.

    To the head chef/dietary staff that worked so hard for such a fussy eater, the Tuesday ice cream volunteer lady, those in Social Service, and many others, go my heartfelt thanks."

    A former patient



    "Every person in your Physical Therapy department including those who transport us to P.T. are exceptional, kind, caring, and loving. I have seen several patients come in with no desire to help themselves-and I have seen one in particular get into his program of doing well and join most of us who have benefited from their exercises."

    A former patient and retired registered nurse



    "I am unable to find words to express how much I appreciate the many things all of you did to make [my sister's] life more comfortable and enjoyable during the time she was a resident at Oakhurst. She called it her home for four years.

    Also I thank you for your cooperation and understanding to me when I would have concerns about her condition. When I would need to speak with someone about something I might have on my mind, you always made time for me. My sincere thanks."

    Sister of a former resident



    "Thank you all and may God richly bless you for your loving care for the elderly/needy.

    I am grateful for this wonderful facility and the good help/care you all give my mother."
