Life at the Long Term Care Center
A wide variety of entertaining and stimulating activities is provided. A small, lovely chapel provides several denominational and nondenominational services each week. An on-site beauty shop is also available. We also maintain a secured unit for residents with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias where we can provide the attentive care they need in a safe environment.
This beautiful, modern, smoke-free facility has a focus on patient-centered care consistent with the Planetree philosophy. Compassionate care is provided and individual dignity is promoted. We strive for a homelike environment whenever possible, providing:
- Personalized, compassionate nursing care by committed health care professionals
- Access to the full array of Cody Regional Health clinical services
- A Cody Regional Health credentialed physician who sees the resident on a regular basis
Family and loved ones are encouraged to visit whenever possible. Having familiar faces a part of their everyday lives helps patients feel more at home in the center.
Special Care Unit
The dementia Special Care Unit (SCU) is a 20-bed department for Alzheimer's and other dementia patients. Some of the patients have special needs due to loss of memory and need a smaller, quieter environment. Patient safety is always a high priority, and this unit is secured to ensure the safety of those who might have a tendency to wander or get lost.
Residents are also assisted in attending activities and special functions outside of the SCU with their families and with staff. Family members are an integral part of the special care provided for these patients.
The staff truly enjoys working in this unit. We keep consistent staff members in the unit so there are always familiar faces to the patients. This is part of validation therapy, which is designed to make patients with dementia feel safer and more at home.
Residency Application
An application for residency is available from the LTCC office or by mail if requested. All residents considering admission are required to have a primary care physician with privileges at Cody Regional Health who agrees to manage the resident's medical care during his or her stay at the LTCC.
