Our skilled healthcare professionals ensure the tracheostomy tube remains clear, preventing blockages, and maintaining proper airflow.

Proper hygiene and timely interventions are crucial to prevent complications, ensuring patients with tracheostomies breathe comfortably and minimize the risk of respiratory issues.

Wound Care

Peritoneal Dialysis

Select Citadel facilities offer Peritoneal Dialysis (PD), a type of renal replacement therapy that provides an effective alternative for individuals with kidney failure. This method utilizes the peritoneum, a thin membrane in the abdomen, as a natural filter to remove waste and excess fluid from the body. PD offers flexibility and convenience, as it can be performed in any clean environment. It allows patients to maintain a more normal lifestyle while receiving continuous dialysis treatment to manage their kidney function.

Behavioral & Psychosocial Care

Psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) is a comprehensive, person-centered approach to mental health recovery that recognizes the interconnectedness of psychological and social well-being. It emphasizes empowering individuals with mental health challenges to rebuild their lives.

Through a combination of therapeutic interventions, skill development, and community integration, PSR seeks to enhance self-esteem, resilience, and daily functioning.

Nearly 1 in 4 adults in the United States struggle with mental illness.

Residents are not defined by their diagnoses but instead are provided with the dignity and assistance they deserve within a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment.

Therapy may include:

  • cognitive-behavioral techniques
  • social skills training
  • vocational support

Additionally, PSR fosters a supportive community network, reducing stigma and promoting inclusion. By addressing both internal and external factors, PSR strives to enable individuals to lead fulfilling lives, reintegrating into society with autonomy and dignity.

Geriatric psychiatry (GeriPsych) in skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities is a specialized field dedicated to meeting the mental health requirements of elderly individuals. This involves a comprehensive approach to understanding and managing psychiatric conditions common in older adults.

Dedicated Hospice Registered Nurse (RN)


Hospice patients will receive regular visits from a hospice RN who will oversee their plan of care, with consultations by a hospice physician as needed.

Pain Management


Hospice care provides compassionate care to alleviate pain and improve comfort during end-of-life, including medications and supplies.

Coordinated Care


Citadel will coordinate the patient’s care and medications across all of the patient’s medical providers, including the patient’s own doctors, hospice doctors, hospice nurses, hospice aides and all nursing home staff.

Palliative Care

Living Comfortably


"Palliative" refers to the relief or reduction of pain and discomfort. The goal of palliative care is to prevent and alleviate suffering while supporting the best possible quality of life for patients and their families. This support extends across all disease stages, accommodating diverse therapeutic needs and aligning with individual values and preferences.

Physical and Emotional Needs


Palliative Care not only provides physical comfort but also attends to the emotional and spiritual needs of both patients and their families. Whether an individual has years, months, or days to live, palliative care enables patients to lead active lives for as long as possible. Simultaneously, it offers crucial support to families, aiding them in coping with the challenges posed by the patient's illness and the subsequent grieving process.

A Holistic Approach


Palliative care services are designed to treat the whole person. This includes a range of interventions such as exploring patient goals and wishes, clarifying medications and treatments, fostering effective communication with the healthcare team, supporting the completion of advance directives, and engaging in discussions about pain and symptom management. Additionally, palliative care provides valuable information and support concerning skilled nursing and hospice care options.
