Long-Term Skilled Nursing Facility
NYC Health + Hospitals/Gouverneur offers long-term care and support for people who can no longer manage their physical, emotional, or mental conditions at home. Our interdisciplinary teams of health care professionals develop customized care plans for each resident. We are committed to providing residents with the opportunity to continue their lives with dignity and meaning, and provide individualized attention and specialized treatment.
Our facility’s proximity to our primary care center makes it convenient for our residents to receive many health care services on-site, including internal medicine, ophthalmology, gynecology, podiatry, imaging, and dentistry.
In addition to around-the-clock skilled nursing care, our residents can enjoy a variety of therapeutic activities in a home-like environment. Our amenities include:
- Enhanced dining experience (restaurant-style) with Chinese, English and Spanish menus and an emphasis on individual food preferences
- Regularly scheduled religious services, as well as cultural heritage celebrations
- Laundry service
- Telephones at each bedside
- Full-time barber/ beautician
- WiFi & Cable accessibility
Families are encouraged to participate in developing the care plans, and attend planning meetings where they meet with health care professionals from each department who are directly involved with the care of their loved one.
