COVID Update - 2/11/2022
In-person visits resume!

Hello to our residents, their families, loved ones and friends,

This update is to advise that Fairhaven Healthcare Center has been COVID-free for 14 days, and that in-person visits resume effective immediately!

Further, our Admissions freeze has been lifted.

We kindly request that you notify us of the date and time of your planned visits (call our Activities Dept. at 978-458-3388, ext. 237) so your loved one will be dressed and ready to spend quality time with you.

As always, feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Thank you and best regards!

Michael Takesian, Administrator
Emily Getchell, Director of Nursing

We hope you'll tour our facility. Here's what you'll learn:

SCORE: On a recent Massachusetts Department of Public Health survey, Fairhaven scored 117 points out of a maximum of 132 possible points—or approximately 89% of perfection. While we're close to perfect,  we won’t stop until we are! These scores are compiled measuring seven critical areas of our healthcare operation,  versus the often criticized ‘5 Star Report’ that only measures three areas.

LEADERSHIP: Our leadership team has more than 175 years of combined experience and knowledge in the Rehabilitation and Long Term Care industry.

PHYSICIANS: Unlike most Rehabilitation and Long Term Care facilities, we employ not one but two physicians to help ensure our rehabilitation patients and long term care residents promptly receive the top-quality care they deserve.

THERAPY: Whether it's physical, occupational or speech therapy, Fairhaven consistently achieves high marks from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services PEPPER report (Program for Evaluating Payment Patterns Electronic Report). Our rankings in this prestigious and well-respected report show everyone that we are not focused on squeezing every dime out of payors; our focus is on quality care.

STAFFING: We have outstanding employees! Schedule a tour of our facility, or just stop by and see for yourself. The people we employ are truly our greatest asset. Their commitment, dedication and passion for providing quality care shine through every minute of every day.
