WCH Skilled Nursing – Transitional Care Unit

5-Star Nursing Home in Wooster, Ohio

The goal of the transitional care unit, Wooster Community Hospital’s skilled nursing facility, is to help people get past the hurdles of recovery and back to their lives, work, family, and independent living. Patients may stay a few days or several weeks, depending on their needs.

Our transitional care unit has received the Best Nursing Homes award from U.S. News & World Report for high ratings in the following categories:

• Health inspections and complaints, which shows how well our facility met home and safety standards for food preparation and other activities
• Staffing, which looks at the average number of hours per day of care was received per resident
• Medical care quality measures, which identifies the percentages of residents who received recommended health care, such as flu vaccinations, and those who experienced care-related problems, such as pain
• Fire safety, which shows how well our facility met National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards

More than 15,000 nursing homes nationwide were evaluated, and our facility was the only skilled nursing facility in Wayne County, Ohio, to receive an overall rating of 5 out of 5 stars after being reviewed in all categories.
