Regent Care Center of Woodway

Regent Care Center of Woodway is located just outside Waco. This facility offers different types of rehabilitation services. I like that the staff works with the patients, as well as the patients' families. This facility offers speech therapy and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. The staff trains the patients to follow the exercises needed for that patient's specifc rehab needs. They also offer classes for family members, so they can learn how to help the patients as well.

During college, I volunteered with a local hospice, and many of the patients I visited (usually in the late afternoons) were located in this nursing home. The nurses were always very courteous, and the lady at the front desk was also pleasant. There was always someone manning the nurses' station, in the event that anyone needed assistance. The facility has TV rooms, a dining room, double suites, and private suites. The private suites consist of two single patient rooms connected to a shared living room. One problem was that they didn't always require you to sign in when entering the building. However, the center is in a good part of town, so patients don't have to worry so much about having their possessions or money stolen (But, in my opinion, you can never be too careful!). Overall, it is a very good facility; none of the patients I visited ever complained about how they were treated.
