The Rainbow Community is a secure 40-bed dementia program. It is located on the first floor of Lewis County Residential Health Care Facility. It is our mission to assist our community, families and caregivers in providing a therapeutic environment that assists individuals living with dementia and their families.

Our nursing staff provides 24-hour nursing care seven days a week. The unit manager on the t Rainbow Community is a Registered Nurse who directs and assists in managing nursing care. Licensed Practical Nurses typically pass the medications to the residents, provide treatments and coordinate resident care. Certified Nursing Assistants provide the hands-on care for the activities of daily living. When needed, Occupational, Physical and Speech Therapy is provided to the residents of the Rainbow Community.

Our staff provides support and education for caregivers, family, friends and/or persons with dementia. Caregivers and family members provide emotional support and exchange coping skills with one another regarding the unique challenges of learning to live with a loved one affected by dementia.

Our meals are served in a dining room with full place setting, just as you might set your table at home. Each resident's plate is dished individually in the dining room just like at home. This allows a person to have more or less of a particular food.

Our visiting hours are not limited. Families are welcome to visit their loved-one at any time.
