Which facility provides 24-hour nursing care?

Nursing centers are specifically designed to provide 24-hour nursing care. These facilities are equipped to cater to individuals who have significant health care needs that require constant monitoring and assistance. Nursing centers employ registered nurses and licensed practical nurses who are available around the clock to address medical needs, administer medications, and provide other necessary health care services.

Other types of facilities, such as board and care homes, assisted living residences, and residential care facilities, typically offer varying levels of support and supervision, but they do not provide the intensive nursing care required 24/7. Board and care homes and residential care facilities often focus on personal care and supervision without full-time nursing staff, while assisted living residences may offer some medical assistance but are not staffed to provide continuous nursing care as nursing centers do. Therefore, the role of nursing centers as comprehensive care facilities underscored their necessity for residents requiring full-time medical support.
