Six care types are on the list at Eastview Health and Rehabilitation Center in Antigo, WI. They are memory care, nursing home care, respite care, skilled nursing, hospice care, and palliative care.
Licensed nurses carry clinical responsibility for skilled residents. Memory care gives residents who might wander a secure, monitored setting. Hospice care brings comfort as life closes, and palliative care relieves symptoms for someone seriously ill.
If the family’s caregiver must travel or heal, respite provides a stay in the meantime. Short-Term Rehab and Outpatient Therapy give a defined stretch of therapy to someone working toward recovery. The home suits anyone needing skilled nursing, secured memory care, end-of-life comfort, respite, or recovery therapy.
The 118 beds are staffed at 3 hours and 14 minutes of nursing per resident per day. Payers are Medicare, Medicaid, and private funds. Of those, Medicare can cover skilled care for a short period once a hospitalization ends. Medicaid may step in when savings won’t last, and otherwise the family pays directly.
For grooming there’s a salon, and the courtyard and garden give time outdoors. Wanda Hose is administrator for Bay at Eastview Health and Rehabilitation LLC, which operates the home.
