About Wallace Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center

+
Wallace Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center, located on South East Railroad Street in Wallace, North Carolina, offers dedicated skilled nursing and rehabilitation services to residents of Duplin County and the broader Eastern Coastal Plain region. The facility operates under the ownership of Simcha Hyman and Naftali Zanziper, whose hands-on approach to skilled nursing management emphasizes attentive, community-rooted care. Wallace is a tight-knit Eastern North Carolina town that serves as a commercial and community hub for Duplin County's agricultural communities. Its location approximately 50 miles northwest of Wilmington makes it genuinely accessible for families traveling from the Cape Fear coast, and the facility is convenient for residents drawing from communities across the county. For hospital-level care, Vidant Duplin Hospital in neighboring Kenansville serves as the regional county hospital, with New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington — one of the region's premier health systems — available for complex specialty needs. The town of Wallace itself carries a distinct character shaped by its coastal agricultural heritage. The historic downtown along the main corridor features local restaurants and businesses that reflect the community's roots, and the surrounding countryside offers a peaceful setting that many seniors find restorative. Nearby Duplin Winery, one of the oldest and most celebrated wineries in North Carolina, is a point of local pride and a destination families enjoy during visits. The proximity to the coastal Carolina landscape — with the beaches of Topsail Island and the natural beauty of the Holly Shelter Game Land within driving range — gives the area a distinctive sense of place. Wallace Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center provides comprehensive skilled nursing care for residents recovering from surgeries, fractures, strokes, and other health events, as well as long-term nursing support for those requiring sustained medical oversight. The interdisciplinary care team crafts individualized plans addressing each resident's clinical, emotional, and social needs with genuine attentiveness.
