Burlington Health and Rehabilitation Center
Burlington Health and Rehabilitation Center provides nursing home, hospice care, memory care, palliative care, respite care and skilled nursing in Burlington, Wisconsin. Nursing home and skilled nursing services provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for a resident at risk of wandering. Hospice care supports end of life needs, palliative care focuses on comfort and symptom relief, and respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
The combination of care types suits a resident whose needs range from ongoing nursing support to short term respite or end of life care. Outpatient therapy and rehabilitation services give residents access to therapy without requiring an inpatient rehabilitation stay. The center has 123 beds, with total nurse staffing of 3 hours and 36 minutes per resident each day, representing the daily hands on nursing time allocated per resident.
Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid and private pay. Medicare can cover short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid can help when savings do not cover a long stay, and private pay means the resident or family pays directly. Michael Phillips serves as the administrator, and Bay At Burlington Health And Rehabilitation operates the community. A Walk Score of 30 out of 100 places the area in a car dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride.
