Pinnacle Rehabilitation & Health Center offers nursing home and nursing care, skilled nursing, memory care, hospice care, palliative care, and respite care in Smyrna, DE. Nursing and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while memory care provides a secured setting with supervision. Hospice and palliative care address comfort and symptom needs, and respite care provides a short-term stay.

The home has 151 beds, a size that accommodates more residents and staff and usually supports more programming than a smaller community. Occupancy is 91%, meaning most of the beds are currently filled.

Total nurse staffing is 3 hours 43 minutes per resident each day, representing the daily hands-on nursing time allocated per resident. Pinnacle accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay; Medicare covers short-term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long-term residence, Medicaid can help when savings may not cover a long stay, and private pay means paying directly. Respite care may be a good fit for a family caregiver who needs short-term support while traveling or recovering.
