Fairhaven Healthcare Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing offers nursing home, hospice care, memory care, respite care, and skilled nursing in Lowell, MA, in the Pawtucketville neighborhood. Nursing care is available around the clock, while memory care uses a secured setting with supervision for residents at risk of wandering. Hospice care supports residents receiving end-of-life care, and respite care offers a short-term stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Rehabilitation services include post-operative care for residents recovering after surgery. Medical programs cover respiratory care, cardiac care, diabetes management, digestive disorder management, pain management, and nutrition and hydration management, so residents with these documented needs can receive care within the nursing setting. The community may be a good fit for someone who needs supervised memory support or for a family seeking a temporary care arrangement.
Fairhaven Healthcare Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing has 169 beds, accommodating more residents and staff, with usually more programming than a smaller community. Total nurse staffing is 3 hours and 47 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident. Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay; Medicare can apply to short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, while Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a long stay.
Residents can use the patio as an outdoor area and choose from a dining menu with a variety of options. A Walk Score of 40 out of 100 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride, which matters for a resident who no longer drives independently.
