Our Short-Term Rehabilitation Center offers all private suites that will allow our guests to recover in a hospital-like environment with the comforts of home. Each private suite is furnished with accommodations that encourage our guests to rest and recover. Franciscan Village’s care support team is available to help guests with activities of daily living in their private suite 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to provide compassionate skilled nursing care.
Rehabilitation treatment philosophies have naturally progressed over time, but one valuable element at Mother Theresa Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is the philosophy and practice that each individual guest is valued and respectfully cared for to restore strength and maximize their fullest recovery potential to safely return home.
