Direct admission into Skilled Nursing
At Legacy Pointe at UCF in Central Florida, we offer skilled nursing care in a comfortable and social senior living community. With programming and quality of care influenced by UCF’s College of Nursing, you or your loved one will receive the attentive care you should expect from a state-of-the-art skilled nursing center. If you have a loved one who needs long-term nursing care, or short-term rehabilitation for recovery following a hospital stay or surgery, we invite you to come tour our community. Our program includes access to a 3025 sq. ft. gym and training kitchen, as well as our beautiful mobility garden.
We’re happy to offer direct admission to new private pay residents, and we’re also accepting Medicare residents for short-term nursing and rehabilitation. You do not have to be part of our existing Independent Living community to access our skilled nursing care.
Working with each resident’s personal physician, we address individual needs and respect personal preferences. Careful assessment, monitoring and evaluation are all part of our restorative philosophy and compassionate approach.
The quality of health services is enhanced by UCF in multiple disciplines:
- UCF’s College of Health Professions and Sciences will provide guidance on the latest in rehabilitative therapy for Legacy Pointe residents
- UCF’s Social Work Department will provide overall case management and act as a liaison for the patient
- UCF’s College of Science’s Psychology Department will provide ongoing counseling and mental health services
