Comprehensive and compassionate life care services after injury
A nurturing community offering lifelong medical care after catastrophic injury
After a catastrophic life event, finding the right long-term life care facility can feel overwhelming. You want a place that feels like home — one that will enhance your loved one’s quality of life while providing the medical care and emotional support they need. Whether a workers’ compensation case or not, it’s important to find a facility that offers comprehensive planning and life care services.
That’s where Nexus Neurorecovery Center comes in. We provide a variety of programs, services, therapies, and activities that help patients adjust to disability and increase their overall well-being. Our dedicated team provides compassionate lifelong care — because we’re experts mending minds.
Offering extended, physician-driven care for individuals with substantial needs
While engaging in structured programming, residents receive 24-hour clinical oversight from physicians and nurse practitioners, ensuring their medical, behavioral, and emotional needs are met. Accepted diagnoses and admission criteria vary, but all life care residents require ongoing medical and/or behavioral regimens that cannot be managed by caregivers at home. We develop personalized master treatment plans tailored to the unique needs and abilities of each individual, enabling residents to live with dignity and purpose.
