Farmington Wellness & Rehabilitation is a 50-bed nursing facility that Welbrook Senior Living LLC operates at 201 Nelson Avenue in downtown Farmington, New Mexico. It sits in a really walkable neighborhood where errands and essential services are within walking distance, a feature that can simplify visits for family members. Medicare and private pay are accepted, giving families flexibility in funding care costs.
The short average stay duration of 19 days indicates this is primarily a rehabilitation and post-acute care setting. It’s tailored to support occupants healing from surgery, hospitalization, or illness before returning home or to longer-term care. Rehabilitation services are a core focus, and the facility offers respite care for families needing short-term support. The home operates with 24-hour staffing and maintains a total of roughly 5 hours 38 minutes of nursing care per resident day, with registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses all contributing to daily care. A certified dietitian manages the kitchen and oversees nutritionally balanced meals tailored to meet individual health needs. With an occupancy rate around 44 percent, the community has room for new residents.
State inspections over recent years have flagged issues primarily focused on medication management protocols and storage practices, along with food safety, respiratory care supply handling, and incident documentation completeness.
