SKILLED NURSING

Shell Point receives quite a few personal letters from family members.

"Dear Pavilion Staff,

Thank you all for helping in the long recovery period of my husband, G.K. You are sensitive, compassionate, caring workers who understand the needs and desires of senior patients.

Fondly,
M.K."

It's this kind of personal attention and caring that makes the Larsen Pavilion one of Lee County's finest skilled nursing facilities. Featuring 219 beds, the Larsen Pavilion is a multi-specialty medical park specializing in short-term rehabilitation, long-term skilled nursing care, Alzheimer's/memory care, hospice care, radiology, dentistry, podiatry, audiology, and more.

Medical services at the Larsen Pavilion are unsurpassed. Four full-time staff physicians and two Nurse Practitioners are dedicated solely to the well-being of Shell Point residents, while pharmacists do on-site consulting and delivery.  The nursing staff averages more than eight years of experience. A family services staff provides support for residents and their families. Quality people ensure that this time of life is handled smoothly and professionally.

The full-time activities staff is always coordinating things to do. Over 200 volunteer members of The Pavilion Auxiliary are on hand to add extra special caring touches for residents.

The Larsen Pavilion itself also has many unique features. A waterfront dining room is situated right at Shell Point's tidal lagoon, where manatees and dolphins frequent. A memory garden allows all residents the independence of walking outdoors, while providing security and safety. A specialized tandem bicycle, allowing staff people to pedal residents on a bike ride through The Island, is just one feature of a specialized therapeutic recreation program.

No one likes to think about needing skilled nursing care, yet statistics show that 7 out of 10 couples will find at least one spouse needing long-term nursing care. At Shell Point, skilled nursing care is included in the lifecare contract - whenever you may need it, and however long you may need it. This gives you and your family peace of mind, knowing that your needs will be taken care of by the caring staff at The Larsen Pavilion.
