Services Residents have access to a broad array of qualified professional health services. McCarrick’s clinical programs are overseen by a certified Medical Director who is a board-certified geriatrician, and supported by geriatric clinical nurse specialists, geriatric social workers, an activities director, specially trained nurses and certified nursing assistants. Physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy services are available five days a week in our sunny, well-equipped gym. Each of our therapists is highly skilled in evaluating residents with debilities and establishing realistic goals for them to achieve the highest level of pain-free living. McCarrick supports the use of pain management (palliative care) to ensure residents remain comfortable and at peace. We also provide a hospice program that serves the needs of the terminally ill and their families. Should any resident require hospitalization, Saint Peter’s University Hospital, a 422-bed major teaching hospital, is located just a few miles away. |
