Skilled Nursing Week at Fulton Center
At Fulton Center in Gloversville, New York, the theme of the 2022 recognition of National Skilled Nursing Care Week during the week of May 9th was American styles through the decades. On Tuesday, May 10, ’70s disco was the theme, and the nursing staff could not wait to get dressed up. The next day was Patriotic Day, so red, white, and blue were the colors throughout the facility. For ’60s, it was common to see tie-dye and peace signs on clothes and jewelry. The entire week was full of activities, thanks to Recreation Director Lona Bleyl and her team, who worked hard to make it open for the nurses. Then live music during an outside BBQ by local band and DJ, Rockin’ Rob, A great time for the nurses, who have also worked hard all year ’round.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
