About Cayuga Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

+
Cayuga Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits at 1229 Trumansburg Road in Ithaca, New York, offering skilled nursing and rehabilitation services along one of the Finger Lakes region's most picturesque corridors. The Trumansburg Road route — also known as Route 96 — winds northward alongside Cayuga Lake's western shoreline, offering residents and their families a setting infused with the natural splendor that defines this part of Upstate New York. The facility provides 24-hour skilled nursing care for both short-term post-acute recovery and longer-term residential needs. Its clinical team is focused on creating individualized care plans that address each resident's unique medical history, rehabilitation goals, and quality-of-life priorities. The facility's structure as a limited liability company enables focused, community-rooted operations that prioritize direct resident care. Ithaca's healthcare ecosystem provides strong support for residents at Cayuga Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Cayuga Medical Center — the region's flagship hospital — is accessible via Route 96, enabling efficient coordination for residents who require specialist consultation or hospital-level services. The proximity also streamlines the discharge-to-rehab transition that many short-stay residents experience. The surrounding Trumansburg Road area offers a beautiful natural environment particularly suited to the Finger Lakes lifestyle. Taughannock Falls State Park, one of New York's most dramatic natural landmarks featuring a waterfall taller than Niagara, is just north along the same road — a destination families can visit during outings. Cayuga Lake State Park and the shores of Cayuga Lake itself are accessible nearby. The charming village of Trumansburg, with its local shops and restaurants, is a short drive north. Closer to town, Ithaca's Wegmans supermarket on Elmira Road, the West End neighborhood, and downtown's Ithaca Commons are accessible for family members visiting from the city. Stewart Park's lakeside pavilions offer a peaceful gathering spot for family visits, and the broader Finger Lakes wine trail begins practically at the doorstep. Cayuga Nursing and Rehabilitation Center provides a clinically grounded care experience in a location where the natural beauty of the Finger Lakes enhances the healing environment.
