In addition to our many specialized services, Helen Porter
continues to build upon our 30-year tradition of high-quality
long-term care services. Separated from the Memory Care
Neighborhood and the Short-Term Post Acute Rehabilitation Unit, our
long-term care residents receive nursing care and assistance with
daily living, as well as programs and activities tailored to their
abilities and needs. Memory Care Unit The Memory Care Unit is
designed to meet the changing needs of individuals as they
experience the progression of symptoms and increases in cognitive
loss associated with a diagnosis of dementia. Our early-stage
program offers activity-based care in a warm, supportive and safe
environment with a primary goal of helping individuals maintain
dignity, purpose and functional ability. This highly specialized
unit is staffed with very dedicated advocates and team members.
Residents in this unit are the most vulnerable, usually unable to
advocate for themselves. Post Acute Care The goal of the Post Acute
Unit at Porter Medical Center- Helen Porter Rehabilitation &
Nursing is to provide supportive, goal-directed care following
surgery and/or hospitalization. Specially designed treatment
programs provide patients with the preparation, support and
education that enables them to return home as quickly as possible.
Our goal is to help patients reach their highest possible level of
independence. A partial list of conditions we work with includes
strokes, neurological conditions, orthopedic care, respiratory
conditions, and cardiac and post-trauma situations. Routine Therapy
services are provided Monday through Friday. We also have the
capability of providing therapy six days a week if that is what is
required to maximize positive results. Nursing staff provide the
necessary extension of therapies when therapy staff are not present
to provide direct service. This may include walking, exercises and
supervision of other activities set up by the therapy staff.
