Care & Comfort in a Home-like Environment
The Bob Fryer & Family Inpatient Center is designed to be a home away from home with bright, comfortable private rooms and plenty of space for family and friends to gather. The Inpatient Center is open 24 hours a day for visitors, and features living rooms and fully equipped kitchens so patients and their families can spend time together in a pleasant environment. Care is provided to patients who are unable to stay in their homes or go to a senior living facility or who need their symptoms managed. Breaks for caregivers, or respite care, is also provided.
The Inpatient Center is centrally located off Route 283, just outside of Lancaster, and offers the hospitality of 24 private rooms and around-the-clock family visitation in a home-like atmosphere. Family members are encouraged to let go of their caregiver responsibilities and focus on spending quality time with their loved ones while at our Center. Once here, patients have access to our kitchen, and we welcome families to gather for a meal in our family kitchens. Our goal is to create an environment where patients and families can spend quality time together.
General Inpatient Care
General inpatient care is short-term, and similar to an acute hospital stay, when patients’ symptoms require physician intervention, frequent nursing assessment, medication adjustments and help with managing difficult symptoms, such as pain, nausea or agitation. Once symptoms are managed, plans are made for the patient to return home or to a skilled care facility.
Respite Care
Respite care, or breaks for caregivers, is available to Hospice families for up to five days at a time on an occasional basis, as dictated by the patient’s insurance. Patients often return home following a respite stay. This level of care is also covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurances.
