About
At Sidney Health Center, we like to think of moving into Extended Care is simply a change of address for our residents. The living spaces are designed around a loving community concept with each wing including a common area that includes a dining and living room area for residents. These common areas replicate the great room found in many private residences, allowing families to congregate and visit with their loved ones in a home-like setting.
Through quality nursing care, activities, self-improvement and friendships, Extended Care proves there is more to aging than growing old. Moving into a community at Extended Care does not mean the loss of your individuality. We look upon each person as unique and constantly strive to meet the needs of the body, mind, and spirit.
Our goal is to eliminate the three plagues of the long-term care institution: loneliness, helplessness, and boredom as well as to provide an environment that provides choices, promotes community and encourages participation in activities that are near and dear to our residents. It is our intention to weave together the community philosophy with the practical applications and make it work in the real world of long-term care.
Through quality nursing care, activities, self-improvement, and friendships, Extended Care proves there is more to aging than growing old. We want to show others how companion animals, the opportunity to care for other living things, and the variety and spontaneity that mark an enlivened environment can succeed where pills and therapies fail.
We find that people feel more comfortable in surroundings that meet their individual needs for friendships and activities, as well as safety. In striving to meet each individual’s unique and specific needs, we offer specialized environments with specialized staff.
