JGS Lifecare
Description
JGS Lifecare is a home that firmly grounds itself on Jewish values, and it is clear that the quality of care they offer goes beyond just a job – it is a true passion. Their skilled nursing services, including long-term care and short-term rehabilitation, as well as senior living options, are a testament to this. For those seeking a safe and trustworthy home, look no further. When it comes to specialized therapies, they offer nothing but the best caliber. They cater to rehabilitation for cardiac and orthopedic issues, heart failure, neurological conditions, and more.
What’s impressive is that they’ve been in operation for over a century, yet they continue to evolve and improve their methods of care. The campus spans over 23 acres of care in Longmeadow and is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. You’ll also find a beauty salon, coffee, and gift shop, inviting communal spaces, walkways, gardens, outdoor nooks, and spiritual support.
