Convalescent Center:
The Convalescent Center is a 200 bed facility, licensed to provide skilled and intermediate care. We participate in the Medicare, Medicaid, and V.A. Contract programs and also accept Private Pay. Our rate sheet is available upon request. The basic rate covers room, board, and nursing care services. Additional charges which may be incurred include: medications, physician's services, lab work, physical therapy, speech or occupational therapy, medical supplies, and beauty/barber shop services.
Here at Christian City, we offer specialized areas of care. These areas are: an Alzheimer's/Dementia Unit, a Rehabilitation Unit for short-term care under Medicare, and Restorative Units for general nursing home care. If an applicant is unable to meet nursing home expenses, application can be made for Medicaid assistance through the local Department of Family and Children Services. Further information regarding Medicaid service is available upon request.
Christian City offers a wide range of services to complement our nursing care. These include an extensive activities program, Dental and Podiatry Services, Vision and Hearing Screening, and religious services coordinated by our Chaplain. A social worker is on staff to assist residents and their families, as needed.
