  Skilled Nursing / Short-Term Care

  Skilled Nursing / Short-Term Care

  Team members with a strong background in skilled nursing trends and practices are essential to your well-being and successful outcomes. The Las Alturas Nursing & Transitional Care’s 24/7 nursing team is led daily by doctors and nurse practitioners experienced in various subspecialties.

  Skilled Nursing / Short-Term Care

  Focused on Your Recovery

  Sometimes after a hospital stay, your doctor will recommend you continue your care at a skilled nursing community before you go home. You have the option to choose Touchstone for your skilled nursing care.

  We understand that not everyone needs to stay with us long term. Our skilled nursing care programs are designed specifically to help you get the care you need to get you back to doing the things you love.

  Part of your skilled nursing care plan might include rehabilitation, which you can learn more about in our rehabilitation section. So, whether you need rehabilitation after undergoing knee surgery, or your loved one had a stroke and needs speech therapy, our skilled nursing care programs can help.

  Skilled nursing or short-term care can be appropriate for:

  Acute medical conditions Cardiac and pulmonary reconditioning Cosmetic surgery recovery Diabetic rehabilitation Fractures General rehabilitation due to weakness or physical decline General wound care Heart attack

  Hip replacement IV and antibiotic treatment Knee surgery Parkinson’s care Pneumonia Respiratory care Stroke Terminal illness care (in cooperation with hospice)

  Long-Term Care

  Long-Term Care

  You’ll experience skilled nursing here that you can’t get at home, and you’ll still be in a loving, safe environment. Not only will your physical health be cared for, but your emotional, mental, and spiritual health too.

  Long-Term Care

  Compassionate Care in a Loving Community

  You’ve come to a point in life when you can no longer live in your own home. Or you can’t take care of your parent by yourself anymore. Or your loved one needs specialized care because of a debilitating illness.

  We know that transitioning to long-term care is a difficult journey for you and your loved one. We will do everything we can to make you feel at home. Your team will encourage your independence with healthy activities, and give around-the-clock nursing support.

  Long-term care can be appropriate when:

  Moving around safely in the home isn’t possible. Frequent falls are becoming a concern. Regular bathing and adequate hygiene are not being maintained. There’s increasing dependence on help with eating, dressing, and bathing. Outside help is needed for housekeeping and meal preparation.

  There’s a loss in weight, dehydration, refusal to eat, or inability to eat properly. There’s an inability to take medications on schedule and at the correct dosages. Home care assistance is not an affordable option.

  Care That Goes Above & Beyond

  You’re thinking about coming to a Touchstone Community, but you’re worried about how you’ll get to your dialysis appointments or doctor visits. Or maybe you need to admit to a community at 2 a.m. on a Sunday night. We’ve got you covered. With support services, we will drive to your doctor appointments, offer dialysis transportation, accept admissions and offer care 24/7, design a diet for you with our registered dietitian, help with discharge planning, and much more. We take responsibility for your overall well-being, so if that means you need additional help outside of a Touchstone community, we will still find a way to support and help you.
