Ponderosa Pines Care and Rehab

Ask Ponderosa Pines Care and Rehab staff what they are most proud of. Surprisingly, the answer won’t be the awards and high survey results they receive. The answer won’t be the superb care they provide. The answer won’t even be that they have Navajo speaking staff on site. The answer will be that they work hard to ensure that the patient’s needs are met – both in the facility and after they return home. What does this mean? This means that no one has to worry about being sent home before they’re able.

The staff at Ponderosa Pines works with residents and their family members to uncover all available financial options so that residents can receive the full amount of care needed both in the facility and once they return home. The staff at Ponderosa Pines lives their mission – to embrace the paths they cross and commit to those that need them.

Short-Term Rehabilitation

At Ponderosa Pines, therapists employ an individualized and holistic approach to treatment. This begins with the design of a rehabilitation plan – a combined effort by the patient, the Ponderosa Pines therapy team, and other members of the patient’s care team (such as family members and physician). Such a plan may include physical, occupational and/or speech therapies and is focused on helping a patient regain independence and return to activities previously enjoyed.

Long-Term Skilled Nursing Care

Ponderosa Pines skilled nursing team is dedicated to enhancing quality of life. Care given and therapies employed are individualized and focused on helping a resident maintain his or her highest level of functionality. Services offered include:

• Complex Surgical Wound and Pressure Ulcer Care

Respite Care

Over 50 million people in the United States are providing in-home, full-time care for elderly loved ones or other family members with disabilities and/or chronic illnesses. Caregivers in such situations need to take time to emotionally and physically recharge. Ponderosa Pine’s staff will care for your loved one for a short period of time, in our facility, while you take a vacation, deal with other responsibilities, or simply rest and recover.

Hospice Care

Hospice Care involves the efforts of the Ponderosa Pines interdisciplinary care team to provide for the needs of the resident and his or her family members when end of life is near. This very special form of care is focused on relieving the resident’s symptoms, especially pain, and on providing social, emotional, and spiritual support.

Quality of Care

The care given at Ponderosa Pines is exceptional. The facility consistently receives some of the highest survey results in the state of Arizona.
