TESTIMONIALS AND GOOGLE REVIEWS

"Mom always has good things to say about the staff, the food, and the friends she has made, like her roommate Betty. My sisters and I are happy that Mom is so content and receives the care she needs both at The Laurels and at Maplewood of Sandy Creek."

"I came to Maplewood last November when my husband of 63 years was admitted to The Laurels side for therapy and then end of life care. The compassion and care that the aides showed me during Harm’s sickness and death was wonderful."

Advocacy

Skilled nursing communities (SNFs) like Ciena Healthcare provide crucial services for our most vulnerable population: the frail and elderly. Today’s SNFs have significantly evolved over time to provide both long-term comprehensive care and short-term rehabilitation services. However, in comparison to other medical settings, especially hospitals, SNFs are often overlooked for important resources and funding.

As health care evolves, skilled nursing communities are increasingly providing care previously delivered in hospitals. Nationwide, the 65 and older population will double over the next 20 years. By 2040, it could triple. As our population ages, SNFs are becoming increasingly vital to the care and wellbeing of our seniors.

SNFs need advocates and allies to actively engage with their representatives and speak up about important issues facing our industry. This page is designed to share ways you can help support SNFs and the vital services they provide for our elders.


Contact Your Elected Officials and Voice Your Support for SNFs!

It is crucial the voices of SNF supporters be heard by Congress. Members of Congress value their constituents’ opinions and it is critical they hear from our advocates and allies.
