Short-term rehabilitation services are available for patients needing therapy or medication management following a hospital stay, with the goal of returning home. For those requiring permanent extended care, skilled nursing services are offered on campus.

JGS Lifecare also operates additional healthcare services including a Visiting Nurse Association program providing in-home medical and therapy support, Adult Day Health services offering socialization and caregiver respite in a safe environment, and hospice and palliative care services focused on pain management, spiritual care, and quality of life for those requiring chronic care and end-of-life support.

Choosing a care facility for a loved one is one of the most difficult decisions a family can make, especially when it involves the complexities of a memory care or dementia unit. However, having Louis CNA as part of my grandmother’s care team has been a complete blessing. He is, quite simply, the absolute best.<br>What truly sets Louis apart is his ability to actually sit and listen. In a fast-paced environment, it is rare to find someone who doesn’t just rush through their tasks. Louis takes the time to truly hear my grandmother, making her feel seen and valued as a person.<br>We have noticed a profound difference in her whenever he is around. Dementia often brings moments of high anxiety and confusion, which can be overwhelming for everyone involved. Louis has an incredible gift for recognizing those moments early. He knows exactly how to talk to her and how to approach her to help her feel safe. Anytime he is in the room, he has a natural way of calming her down and bringing her back to a place of peace.<br>His level of care and attentiveness is unmatched. He notices the small details that others might miss, and he treats her with a level of dignity and patience that gives our family incredible peace of mind.<br>If you are thinking of moving a family member here, do not hesitate—and specifically, request Louis! You want someone who treats your loved one like family, and that is exactly what Louis does every single day. We are so incredibly lucky to have him

Ruth’s House is one of the best Assisted Living Communities in the area. I have visited there many times and I can’t say enough good things about it. It has a very warm and friendly atmosphere.

For what this place costs I would expect them to hire some people that were at least decent humans.
