Life Care Center of Stoneham

Life Care Center of Stoneham is a continuum-of-care campus offering skilled nursing, rehabilitation, assisted living and long-term care. Its focus is inpatient rehabilitation backed by 24-hour skilled nursing, with an in-house team of therapists and nurses who build individualized care plans around each patient’s goals. The aim is to help residents and patients reach their highest possible level of independence, with a personalized approach that recognizes each patient’s individuality.

The center sits just north of Boston, offering a small-town feel with easy access to the city, and it is across the street from Spot Pond. It is part of the Life Care Centers of America network, which emphasizes resident dignity, a resident-centered approach to care and close family involvement.
