The Woodlands Health & Rehab Center will be celebrating National Skilled Nursing Care Week (NSNCW), which runs from May 9 to 15. The theme for this year’s national observance, “Together Through the Seasons,” celebrates the collaborative commitment of skilled nursing care facilities and their staff in providing compassionate care to their residents during this unprecedented time.

Created by the American Health Care Association (AHCA) in 1967, NSNCW, formerly known as National Nursing Home Week, provides an opportunity for residents and their loved ones, staff, volunteers, and surrounding communities to honor the role of skilled nursing care centers in caring for America’s seniors and individuals with disabilities.

“We are excited and grateful to be celebrating being together safely with our incredible residents, their loved ones, and staff this week,” said Angela Baldwin, Administrator of The Woodlands Health & Rehab Center. “National Skilled Nursing Care Week this year is extra special as we honor the unparalleled commitment and resiliency of our heroic staff and the special bonds shared with our residents and their families.”

This year, The Woodlands Health & Rehab Center has planned the following NSNCW events to safely celebrate being together again:
