Do you have a separate unit for short-term rehabilitation?
The Rehab Center at Atlantic Coast comprises a completely
separate wing with independent dining, activities, and therapy gym.
What types of conditions do you treat at your Rehab
Center?
Atlantic Coast’s Rehabilitation Center provides care
for a complete spectrum of rehabilitative needs. While a comprehensive
list would be too lengthy to enumerate, the following are some of the
more common reasons people come to Atlantic Coast:
Contact our Director of Admissions or ask your doctor to
determine if you could benefit from our rehabilitative care.
Are you one of those big corporate chain facilities?
Atlantic Coast is family owned and operated. It’s noticeable in
the way we give each resident individual attention. However, there’s
nothing “Mom and Pop” about the quality of care. In fact,
we network with several other New Jersey facilities, sharing innovative
ideas to maintain and improve our standards of excellence.
Do you accept insurance plans?
We participate in a large number of health insurance plans, as well as
Medicare and Medicaid. Our Director of Admissions, who is an expert in
Medicare/Medicaid and insurance guidelines, will guide you through the
process, and will assist you in determining eligibility as well as maximizing
your benefits.
Can I use my own physician while at Atlantic Coast?
Most area doctors are already attending physicians at Atlantic Coast.
If your doctor is not, he can apply to become an attending physician.
Is there a choice of menus at each meal?
Our chefs are aware that different people have different food preferences,
and always prepare more than one choice at each meal. Additionally, each
resident’s dietary needs and concerns are assessed by our dietitian
upon admission and accommodated accordingly.
Do you need advance notice, or can I be admitted
immediately?
Although admissions are subject to bed availability, we make every effort
to expedite all requests. While we do appreciate advance notification,
we realize that in many situations it is not possible. Ultimately it is
the well being of the patient that is paramount.
Are there always nurses on duty?
Definitely. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Holidays as well.
