Bellevue Health & Rehab Center in Oklahoma City, OK, combines nursing home care and skilled nursing with hospice care and palliative care in one location. Skilled nursing provides licensed nurses to residents requiring ongoing clinical care. Hospice and palliative care both focus on comfort and symptom management, with palliative care complementing treatment and hospice stepping in when treatment ceases.
Therapy includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as rehabilitation for cardiac, orthopedic, post-surgical, and stroke recovery for individuals healing from those conditions. IV therapy and pain management complete the clinical services.
The facility contains 142 beds, and each resident’s day averages 4 hours and 42 minutes of nursing care. Medicaid covers extended care for eligible residents, Medicare pays for short-term skilled care following a hospital discharge, and individuals can also use personal funds for payment. The fit is an individual whose requirements necessitate clinical assistance, be it through nursing, therapy, or comfort care.
