At Cedar Crest, we believe that each resident in our care is unique, with individual needs and appetites. This philosophy directs our Total Care approach to patient care. Total Care begins with an intense focus on the medical needs of each of our residents, and then continues with kind attention to their personal, social, and spiritual needs as well.
It is our goal to maximize the comfort and recovery potential of each of our residents, and at the same time, provide comfort to those who cared for them long before we did. In addition to twenty-four hour skilled nursing care, we provide a comprehensive program of therapy services including Physical, Occupational, and speech therapy. We provide intensive stroke and orthopedic rehabilitation, and have achieved very impressive outcomes as a result of state of the art programs and equipment. Our in house therapists and nursing staff work as partners to treat patients who may have lost their strength and mobility due to illness, trauma, or surgery.
Cedar Crest is a quality, Total Care nursing facility with an exceptional staff and a wonderful homelike environment. We believe that with one visit, you will see what we mean. Just ask one of the hundreds of patients we helped to return home last year!
