 There are three levels of care typically provided by a quality continuum of care nursing facility:
- Basic Care is required to maintain a resident's activity of daily living. Personal care, supervision and safety are of utmost priority.
- Skilled Nursing Care requires the services of a nurse for treatments and procedures.
- Sub-Acute Rehabilitation is comprehensive inpatient care designed for someone who has had an acute illness, injury, or exacerbation of a disease process.
- Veteran's Administration Approved - Briar Hill Health Care Residence is one of the very few local long term care facilities approved by the Veteran's Administration.
Specialized nursing services at Briar Hill Health Care Residence are provided through the attention of our Medical Director, private physicians, skilled nurses and other healthcare professionals.

Specialized services for short or long-term residents provided by our professional staff include intravenous therapy, tracheotomy care, wound care, hospice and respite care, stroke rehabilitation, and physical, occupational and speech therapies. An individualized restorative nursing program enables residents to maintain optimum functional levels when comprehensive therapies are not indicated. Outpatient therapy is also available.
