Registered Nurse

Silvercrest promotes excellence and improves outcomes for all of our patients. We are known for our particular expertise in sub-acute rehabilitation services, complex pulmonary services, and long-term care. Sub-acute Rehabilitation Services Our comprehensive rehabilitation program is designed to ensure each patient achieves the highest possible level of function in the shortest amount of time. We are experts in providing care for patients after an acute illness, cardiac episode, stroke, surgery, or orthopedic injuries or surgery. Care is provided by a highly trained, multidisciplinary team consisting of physical, occupational, and speech therapists, physicians, registered nurses, and dieticians. Complex Pulmonary Services Silvercrest is the oldest and largest provider of post-acute respiratory care in the Greater New York Region. Since 1992, Silvercrest has set the standard by exceptional superior care to thousands of patients. Our team of pulmonologists, respiratory therapists, and registered nurses works to develop individualized care plans for each patient. All ventilator dependent patients are evaluated to see if they meet the criteria for our evidence-based weaning protocol. Our top-rated specialists also manage complex respiratory cases and can provide care for those that need Bipap, C-pap, and high flow oxygenation. In addition, out team members can manage patients with L-VADS, life vests and diaphragmatic pacers. Special expertise is available in the management of patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF). Silvercrest is one of two facilities in the state of New York to carry certification by the American Heart Association in managing this complex disease. Long Term Care Long term care services are available as an alternative to those with complex healthcare needs that make independent living no longer an option. Our long term residents are of all ages, often with debilitating complex diseases. Our common goal is to build a new life, full of function and happiness. Long term residents are encouraged to expand their interest, socialize, and learn.
