Each resident at Pruitthealth, Crestwood accounts for 3 hours and 42 minutes of nursing in a single day. That is hands-on time, averaged across 79 beds in Valdosta, Georgia. The license names three levels: skilled nursing, memory care, and hospice care.
Memory care here is built around supervision for a person at risk of getting up and walking out, and that risk keeps no schedule. On the skilled nursing side, licensed nurses are on duty when the building is dark.
Hospice care is about controlling pain and breathing rather than treating toward a cure. Rehabilitation is available as well, for a recovery expected to end. A salon runs here, and religious services are on the calendar.
Three routes pay for a stay. Medicare covers skilled care once a hospital has discharged someone, not a permanent address, and Medicaid helps when savings will not stretch. Private pay is money from the resident or the family, and somebody is usually paying while an application moves.
Adriane Spencer is the administrator. A family planning either a temporary rehabilitation stay or ongoing residential nursing care is the one this fits.
