Overview of Complete Care at Voorhees

Complete Care at Voorhees offers six care types in Voorhees, NJ. They are memory care, palliative care, hospice care, respite care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing.

Skilled nursing and nursing home care are two names for a single provision of licensed nursing on the premises. Memory care is defined by the place rather than by any specific task. It’s a secured setting for someone who could wander off. Hospice care is aimed at comfort, and palliative care is too, but beside an illness that’s still being treated.

Respite care covers short stays. It is the single care type here that assumes the resident is going to go home again. That is what a family arranges when the usual caregiver needs a break or time for their own recovery.

Post acute care, short term rehabilitation, and orthopedic and post surgical work are for the weeks after a hospital stay or an operation. Named programs go beyond that. Cardiac, neuro and stroke, pulmonary, renal, bariatric, and psychology and psychiatric care are all also named, and rehabilitation services are there to put therapy where residents already are.

The building is licensed for 190 beds. At 94.2 percent occupancy, most have someone in them, so an opening may not come when a family needs it.

Divide a day of nursing across the census, and each resident’s share is 3 hours and 44 minutes. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted, and Susan Love administers the home.
