How We Provide Care
At each of our facilities, we take a team approach to care. Our core team includes nurses and nursing assistants, rehab therapists, social workers, activities staff, a dietitian, and our medical director.
Our care is patient-centered, taking your strengths, needs, abilities—and your goals—into account. From all that information, we create a personalized care plan. The focus is on meeting your goals, accommodating your preferences, and providing top-notch service.
We offer a wide variety of care and services to meet many needs. Click on the care or service below to learn more about it:
Rehabilitation
Our rehab team consists of physical, occupational, and speech therapists-many with master's degrees-and specially trained therapy assistants. They're all licensed professionals dedicated to helping you regain strength, mobility, and independence; achieve the best possible outcome; and return to the activities you most enjoy. We offer therapy services up to seven days a week, as ordered by your physician.
Our rehab therapists will design a rehab plan, in accordance with your physician's orders, to help you reach your goals. And they'll work as tirelessly as you do to help you achieve those goals.
Our rehabilitation program provides care to meet a wide range of needs:
- Orthopedic rehab for fractures, joint replacement, and degenerative joint diseases

Long-Term Care
Our long-term residents are the heart and soul of our facility. For them, Bourne Manor is their home, and our staff become part of their family. We provide our residents with around-the-clock nursing care and supervision, help with activities of daily living (dressing, bathing, eating), and serve them nutritious meals and snacks. They also have access to rehab and the other specialized services we offer, as their condition requires. We have several important goals for our long-term residents. First, we work to keep them as independent as possible for as long as possible. The more they can do for themselves, the better their quality of life. Second, we encourage them to be as active as possible, participating in as many activities and events as they’re interested in. And third, we help them stay as connected as possible to their community, family, and friends. Even well-behaved pets can visit.
Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
We provide quality, compassionate care to people with Alzheimer’s and related forms of dementia. We focus on maintaining dignity and independence, so that each resident has the best possible quality of life. Respite Visits
We also welcome people living at home to stay at Bourne Manor for a respite visit—a brief stay in our facility when their family member or other at-home caregiver is temporarily unavailable. This allows the caregiver to go on vacation, travel for business, recuperate from an illness, or just get some extra support for a while.
A respite stay includes all the services and amenities available to our long-term residents: a safe, friendly place to stay; high-quality, 24-hour nursing care and supervision; assistance with activities of daily living; meals and snacks; and participation in any planned activities of interest to them. A respite stay not only gives the at-home caregiver peace of mind, it can be a nice change of pace for the loved one.
