Welcome to Oak Forest Health and Rehabilitation Center
Situated on a peaceful, expansive campus in Winston‑Salem, North Carolina, Oak Forest Health and Rehabilitation Center blends clinical expertise with a home-like atmosphere. From the moment residents arrive, a dedicated team collaborates to tailor individualized care plans—whether for long-term living, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, or short-term respite stays. Sunlit indoor lounges, quiet outdoor courtyards, and comfortable private and semi-private suites create an environment where wellness and daily life harmoniously coexist.
Long-Term Care
Residents requiring ongoing support benefit from compassionate, around-the-clock nursing care woven into everyday life. Licensed nurses and CNAs partner to manage medications, monitor health, and assist with routine tasks. Meals are thoughtfully crafted and served in a communal dining room, creating opportunities for connection. Residents might spend afternoons in a cozy lounge reading or chatting, or outside in a courtyard enjoying fresh air. Housekeeping, laundry, cable, and Wi-Fi are handled behind the scenes, giving residents peace of mind and space to focus on comfort and companionship.
Rehabilitation Care
Oak Forest’s short-term rehabilitation program supports recovery from surgery, stroke, injury, or illness. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work one-on-one in a well-equipped therapy gym with an Activities-of-Daily-Living suite. Therapy plans may include balance training, strength exercises, and swallow or communication support, with options for enhanced treatments like electrical stimulation. Those in rehab receive meals tailored to recovery needs and consistent clinical oversight, all aiming to rebuild independence and facilitate a smooth return home.
Skilled Nursing
For complex medical needs, Oak Forest provides skilled nursing care by a collaborative team of RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and physicians. Services include IV therapy, wound and ostomy care under specialist supervision, cardiopulmonary support, incontinence assistance, fall-prevention strategies, and access to geriatric psychiatry. On-site podiatry, lab services, and emergency response systems help residents feel secure, knowing that medical needs are met with precision and compassion.
Respite Care
Respite Care at Oak Forest offers short-term stays for post-hospital recovery or caregiver relief. Guests receive full access to skilled nursing, rehabilitation therapy, nutritious meals, salon services, and social engagement—all within the same nurturing environment as long-term residents. Whether staying a few days or several weeks, residents experience compassionate care paired with personal attention.
Everyday Life Rooted in Care & Connection
Life at Oak Forest centers on dignity, connection, and ease. Residents gather in comfortable lounges, enjoy activities like hair care, therapy sessions, or casual social events, and relax in shaded courtyards. Behind the scenes, staff manage medication, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance, and safety with attentive care. Cable TV, Wi‑Fi, scheduled transportation, and salon services are seamlessly integrated to enrich each day.
