What to Expect
At Mala Strana Rehabilitation Center and Assisted Living, we seek to provide you with a seamless transition into our skilled care facility.
Transitioning to a new a new living situation can be challenging. That’s why we make sure to provide the most homelike experience possible for our residents. When you arrive at the facility, you will get a tour of the campus to ensure you know your way around and a person from our care team will assist you with getting settled to your room and discuss your routine with you so we can make your experience at Mala Strana is as similar to your previous home routine. We want to make sure you can settle in your room, meet some new people and make some new friends right away. We encourage our residents to attend activities and enjoy their meals in the dining room so they can become engaged with others in the community.
Here are a few important mentions for any new residents to know before arriving at our facility.
When You Arrive
When you arrive at our facility, we’ll assist you to your room and help you get all settled in. Our maintenance staff can help you hang any pictures, or other artwork to make you feel more at home. After a team member shows you to your room, the nursing department will complete a short assessment to ensure you get the care you need during your time with us. They will also make sure you have everything you need to feel comfortable. Then you will meet with the rest of the care team, usually within 48 hours upon arrival.
What to Bring
Mala Strana will provide your medication, medical/hygiene supplies, activities and meals. Make sure to pack several loose, comfortable outfits to wear if you will be participating in our therapy services. These outfits should be easy to get on and off because you don’t want to potentially aggravate any injury you may have. Sweatpants, shorts, T-shirts, as well as assistive devices like glasses, hearing aids or specialized equipment you were given at the hospital (braces or walker, etc.) if you forgot something, don’t worry. Simply let the staff know and we can accommodate you.
