Overview of Rochester West Health Services

Rochester West Health Services offers nursing home care, memory care, palliative care, respite care, and skilled nursing in Rochester, MN. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.

Palliative care focuses on comfort and symptom management for someone living with serious illness, and respite care provides a short stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover. The range of care types may suit a family seeking ongoing nursing support, a secured setting for someone with memory related needs, or short term care during a caregiver’s absence; a Walk Score of 31 places the area in a car dependent setting, meaning most errands require a car or a ride, so a resident who no longer drives would generally need transportation for those trips.
