Long Term Care Unit

Long Term CareCoulee Medical Center supports a Long Term Care Unit which is located in a wing of the main hospital and is usually at capacity. A large airy activity/dining room and fenced patio and garden are available to all residents and their families and offers an ideal location for many activities.

The unit also offers a full range of services that are either unique to, or shared by the main hospital facility. An activities director sees that residents enjoy daily, scheduled social activities and coordinates special entertainment and service projects by community members. Speech, occupational, physical and mental health therapy are all available through visiting specialists who either personally perform the therapy or design programs that are implemented by long term care staff. Formal "Care Conferences" for residents and family members allows families to ask questions and give input to specific care needs.

Being located in the hospital complex gives the unit the advantage of having quality emergency assistance available close at hand: A uniqueness not all facilities can match.
