2022 National Skilled Nursing Care Week
Create and Nurture Connections This National Skilled Nursing Care Week

Established as an annual, week-long observance by the American Health Care Association (AHCA) in 1967, NSNCW provides an opportunity to recognize the essential role of skilled nursing care centers in caring for America’s elders and individuals with disabilities.

Skilled nursing care centers and their staff provide a​ steadfast commitment to providing high-level of care for their residents. This has never been more evident than the last two years during the pandemic. In addition to protecting and caring for their residents around the clock during a time of limited visitation and social distancing, staff stepped in and served ​as family members and friends to ensure that residents had the essential social connections they needed.

That is why Dinwiddie Health & Rehab Center is excited to celebrate our heroic staff and the residents they care for this National Skilled Nursing Care Week (NSNCW), May 8-14, with the theme “Creating and Nurturing Connections.”  This year, Dinwiddie Health & Rehab Center  has planned the following NSNCW events:
