Ridgewood Living & Rehabilitation Center

Nestled in the heart of Washington, North Carolina — affectionately known as "Little Washington" — Ridgewood Living & Rehabilitation Center provides compassionate, expert-level skilled nursing care along the charming Highland Drive corridor. Operated by CCH Healthcare, a management company with a demonstrated commitment to clinical excellence and resident-centered care, Ridgewood is designed to support patients through post-acute recovery, long-term care needs, and complex medical management with dignity and professionalism. The facility's location in Washington, NC offers residents and visiting families an exceptional quality of life in one of eastern North Carolina's most welcoming small cities. The scenic Pamlico River waterfront is just minutes away, where the city's beloved Riverwalk Esplanade provides a peaceful, accessible path ideal for family strolls during visits. Downtown Washington's historic Main Street district offers a variety of local dining options and boutique shops within easy reach, making family outings and caregiver breaks both convenient and enjoyable. For medical coordination and specialist access, ECU Health Beaufort Hospital — the region's primary acute care facility — is located nearby on East 12th Street, ensuring seamless continuity of care between hospital stays and skilled nursing rehabilitation. This proximity is especially valuable for residents recovering from surgery, stroke, or orthopedic procedures who benefit from close coordination between their hospital care team and Ridgewood's nursing staff. Families will also appreciate Washington's small-town warmth. The city's historic character, access to Hackney Athletic Complex, and proximity to the scenic town of Bath — North Carolina's oldest incorporated town — give the area a richness that larger cities can't replicate. Beaufort County's slower pace, friendly community, and natural beauty along the coastal plain make it a genuinely comforting place for loved ones to receive care. At Ridgewood Living & Rehabilitation Center, CCH Healthcare's team delivers skilled nursing services with the attention and responsiveness that families expect when a loved one's health demands the highest level of support.
