St James Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center provides short-term rehabilitation following surgery, stroke, or illness, as well as long-term skilled nursing care for individuals with complex medical needs. The clinical team includes licensed nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists who collaborate to build individualized care plans for every resident.
