What are Skilled Nursing Facilities?
Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs), also known as nursing homes or convalescent homes, are residential care facilities that provide round-the-clock medical care and rehabilitation services to individuals who require intensive nursing care on a long-term or short-term basis. These facilities are equipped to meet the complex medical needs of residents who may have chronic illnesses, disabilities, or other health conditions that require ongoing medical attention and supervision.
Services Provided at Skilled Nursing Facilities:
Skilled nursing facilities offer a wide range of services designed to meet the individual needs of their residents. Some of the key services provided at SNFs include:
24/7 Nursing Care: Skilled nursing facilities have registered nurses and licensed practical nurses on staff around the clock to provide medical care, administer medications, monitor vital signs, and address any health concerns that arise.
Rehabilitation Services: SNFs offer comprehensive rehabilitation services, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, aimed at helping residents regain strength, mobility, and independence after illness, injury, or surgery.
Medication Management: Skilled nursing facilities assist residents with medication management, ensuring that medications are taken as prescribed and monitoring for any adverse reactions or side effects.
Personal Care Assistance: SNFs provide assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as dressing, grooming, bathing, toileting, and mobility, to help residents maintain their independence and dignity.
Wound Care: Skilled nursing facilities offer specialized wound care services for residents with chronic wounds or injuries, including wound assessment, dressing changes, and infection control measures.
Nutritional Support: SNFs provide nutritious meals and snacks tailored to meet the dietary needs and preferences of residents, ensuring that they receive adequate nutrition to support their overall health and well-being.

These activities may include group outings, games, crafts, music therapy, and educational programs.
Who Needs Skilled Nursing Facilities?
Skilled nursing facilities are designed for individuals who require intensive medical care and supervision due to complex medical conditions, disabilities, or limitations in activities of daily living. Some common reasons why individuals may need skilled nursing care include:
Chronic Illnesses: Individuals with chronic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, respiratory disorders, or neurological disorders may require ongoing medical care and monitoring that cannot be provided at home.
Rehabilitation: Individuals recovering from surgery, injury, stroke, or other medical events may need intensive rehabilitation services to regain function and independence, which can be provided in a skilled nursing facility.
Terminal Illness: Individuals with terminal illnesses or life-limiting conditions may choose to receive palliative or hospice care in a skilled nursing facility to manage symptoms and provide comfort during their final days.
Complex Medical Needs: Individuals with complex medical needs, such as wound care, ventilator support, or intravenous therapy, may require specialized medical care and equipment that is available in a skilled nursing facility.
Safety Concerns: Individuals who are no longer able to safely care for themselves at home due to mobility issues, cognitive impairment, or other safety concerns may benefit from the 24/7 supervision and support provided in a skilled nursing facility.
