Exceptional Skilled Nursing Services

“I cannot thank you enough for the loving care you gave my mother.  Your kindness to her and us, her family, as well as the compassionate, professional help you give to everyone in your care is appreciated far beyond my means to express.  Your road is surely doing God’s work.  Thank you so much.” 

At LUTHERAN HEALTHCARE CENTER’s 101-resident Skilled Nursing Facility, exceptional care is our specialty:

• Nursing staff are sincerely concerned about and attentive to residents and their needs, creating a warm and caring environment for residents and family members
• Residents are encouraged to regain and maintain their ability to participate in daily activities
• Recreational and chaplaincy programs keep residents engaged with one another and with the pleasures of life (See Resident Life page for more details)
• Medical Director Dr. Nancy Swayze of Worcester provides compassionate and expert medical care.  Dr. Swayze and numerous other physicians also have privileges to treat residents at LHC.
