Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), also known as nursing homes, provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses and trained caregivers for individuals who need ongoing medical attention or rehabilitation after a hospital stay. These facilities offer physical, occupational, and speech therapy, wound care, medication management, and other specialized treatments to support recovery and long-term health.

While many residents come to skilled nursing facilities for short-term rehabilitation, some may transition into permanent placement if they require continuous medical supervision and assistance with daily activities. At Senior Living Options of the Northwest, we help families determine whether skilled nursing is the right choice, whether for short-term recovery or long-term care. We carefully research and evaluate facilities to ensure they provide high-quality medical support, compassionate care, and a comfortable living environment for your loved one.
