Skilled Nursing Facility
A skilled nursing facility is a healthcare institution that provides specialized care and treatment for individuals who require round-the-clock medical attention and assistance. These facilities are staffed with skilled nurses, therapists, and other healthcare professionals who are trained to manage complex medical conditions and provide rehabilitation services to help patients regain their independence. Skilled nursing facilities may offer services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, wound care, and medication management. Patients in skilled nursing facilities typically have chronic medical conditions, disabilities, or have recently undergone surgery and need intensive medical care and monitoring.
