Skilled Nursing Services Available at Haven Health in Safford
At Haven Health in Safford, we provide a range of services and programs to best meet the recovery needs of you or a loved one requiring ongoing support. Here are some of the services you’ll have access to:
Short-Term Rehabilitation
If you or a loved one are recovering from an illness, surgery, or injury, short-term rehabilitation ensures a safe and structured recovery. You might be referred to short-term rehab after a hospital stay because you likely no longer require acute care.
While returning home after hospitalization is an option, it may not always be the best one. Seeking short-term rehabilitative care for you or a loved one provides round-the-clock support from experienced medical professionals who are there when you need them.
Long-Term Rehabilitation
In some cases, long-term rehabilitation is necessary. This is often for individuals with degenerative diseases, complex post-surgical needs, or chronic conditions that limit independence.
At Haven Health, our care team understands the challenges of long-term rehab. To ease the transition, our facilities offer a comfortable, home-like atmosphere, where residents can engage in community activities, fostering connection and healing.
Memory Care
Memory care supports individuals with cognitive impairments when families can no longer provide adequate care at home. Our medical team, including our nursing staff and support personnel, are dedicated to delivering compassionate, dignified treatment for those with memory-related conditions, like Alzheimer’s or dementia.
Assisted Living
Assisted living services help individuals who need support with daily activities, like bathing, hygiene, meal preparation, and other tasks. Our friendly staff and medical team create a welcoming environment for all residents in need of this type of daily care.
Medical Needs Addressed at Haven Health
Like many residents across Arizona, residents in Graham County, where Safford sits, face health challenges that often require specialized care. This is especially true of seniors who may need daily support, or ongoing care after an injury.
According to the latest county data, 13.9% of Graham County residents report a disability that hindered their activities. Many are seniors, with 7.8% of all residents struggling with mobility, 6.8% facing cognitive difficulties, and another 6.5% being unable to live independently due to health issues.
At Haven Health, our skilled nursing facilities and medical services address a variety of health struggles. Below are some of the medical needs we address.
- Alzheimer’s and dementia: Individuals with Alzheimer’s or dementia generally require more robust, round-the-clock care as they age. As a degenerative disease, supportive care early on can help make an impacted individual feel more comfortable and at ease. Families who know they have supportive care to turn to for their loved one will also have an easier time transitioning into this new chapter of life. At Haven Health, our skilled nursing facilities, care team, nurses, and support staff offer compassionate and dignified treatment to all our patients suffering from degenerative diseases like these.
- Complex wound care: Both illnesses and chronic diseases can result in complex injuries that require wound care. At Haven Health, our medical team, nurses, and certified nursing assistants provide quality care to all patients who regularly suffer from wounds because of their health issues.
- Infectious disease care: As we age, we become more vulnerable to diseases. At Haven Health, we can address and manage a variety of infectious diseases, including pneumonia, influenza, urinary tract infections, and skin infections.
- Dialysis: Dialysis is a critical treatment for individuals with declining kidney function. Whether they have an acute kidney injury, or end stage renal disease, dialysis is essential in helping to keep the body healthy and strong. Haven Health facilities are equipped to provide regular dialysis treatments, which are offered through structured and scheduled sessions based on an individual’s health needs.
- Tracheotomy and tracheostomy care: Sometimes used interchangeably, these terms refer to the surgical incision in the neck to create an opening in the trachea. Certain health conditions that obstruct breathing can warrant this procedure. At Haven Health, our staff can provide supportive care if you have a tracheostomy, a speaking valve, or need general healthcare support with this long-term medical intervention.
- Ventilator care: Our team is able to provide medical services for individuals who require ventilator care. Often needed for those with breathing issues, a ventilator may be used as a temporary or permanent solution to improve breathing. Many times, ventilators are a long-term care solution for individuals with chronic respiratory health issues.
- Joint replacement recovery: If you or a loved one have recently had a joint replacement, our skilled nursing staff can help with the early stages, and ongoing care needed to ensure a smooth recovery.
Therapies We Offer
The serene beauty of Safford and the surrounding area makes it easy for residents to get out and enjoy the outdoors. As a result, many in the region tend to live healthier lives because they are more active.
However, if you’ve suffered an injury or are facing a chronic health condition that has impacted your ability to move, speak, or even behave as you once have, therapy can help improve your mobility and overall quality of life.
At Haven Health’s skilled nursing facilities, you’ll have access to a number of therapies that address existing health concerns. Some of the therapies available include:
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is a type of support used if your mobility and overall health and wellness have been impacted by a disease, injury, or other factor. Instead of relying only on traditional medical approaches, like drugs and surgery, holistic methods are applied. This might include heat and cold treatments, massage, and intentional exercises.
Behavioral Therapy
Behavioral therapy addresses struggles individuals have with their behaviors and patterns of thinking. There are a number of reasons why someone’s behavior might be impacted. It could be a learned behavior, or a sudden shift in cognitive reasoning after an injury or illness.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy helps individuals recover from a mental or physical illness. Through structured rehabilitation techniques, you’ll work on physical activities and exercises that improve your mobility and ability to engage in everyday tasks.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy involves intervention services that help an individual improve their speech and language abilities. It may be used if you have a condition, like a lisp, or if you’ve suffered an injury or accident that altered your speech capabilities.
