Built on a wellness concept designed to further enhance activities of daily living, our staff members represent all disciplines of therapy, discharge planning, and skilled nursing services. Our programs include a wide variety of special services including:
Short-Term Rehabilitation Care
As a leader in rehabilitation services, The Ambassador Lincoln is ever mindful that our patients are people first - and our approach to care reflects this core belief. It begins with a careful evaluation of the patient and medical history, along with discussions with the patient and family, physicians, and other medical providers. From there, we develop an individualized, comprehensive care plan that is focused on making the transition from hospital to rehab facility to home. Built on a wellness concept designed to further enhance activities of daily living, our multi-disciplinary approach brings together a combination of core team members. Your individualized, multi-disciplinary team may include: physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapists, skilled nursing services, social services, discharge planning, a registered dietician, and an individualized activity program.
Making the decision to move to a long-term care facility can be difficult and overwhelming. The Ambassador Lincoln makes the transition from home comfortable and seamless. Our team of dedicated staff work together to ensure our residents feel safe, secure, and welcome in their new home. Our long-term care residents are encouraged to not only participate in personalizing the care in which they receive, but also the environment in which they surround themselves with. This personalization allows residents to familiarize their surroundings with the comforts of home.
For more than 25 years, The Ambassador Lincoln Pulmonary Unit has provided the region’s premier Pulmonary Special Care Program. Staffed 24 hours a day by registered nurses and licensed respiratory therapists, the unit operates under the leadership of a Board-Certified Pulmonary Physician.
Following a carefully developed care plan, our pulmonary staff helps to ensure our pulmonary residents reach their highest individual potential. Short-term weaning candidates are treated aggressively, while long-term patients are given a slower approach. Yet, in every case, our ultimate goal is to enable the resident to gain freedom from ventilator support and preserve the dignity and quality of life while under our care.
A homelike alternative to the hospital setting, The Ambassador Lincoln’s Pulmonary Special Care Unit provides all the latest respiratory devices and services needed for individual rehabilitation including:
- Piped-in oxygen
- In-line suction
- State-of-the-art electric beds
- IV Therapy
- TPN Administration
- Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy
- Private Suites

At The Ambassador Lincoln, we not only work together to ensure positive outcomes for our patients and residents, but also support the families and staff who enable us to successfully achieve our goals.
Your individualized, multi-disciplinary support team may include:
Physical Therapy
At the center of our physical therapists' care is the restoration of function and the prevention of disability resulting from disease, injury, or illness. They enable patients to strengthen muscles and encourage the return of motion through a variety of therapies and exercises.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapists provide intervention to minimize physical deficits that interfere with the performance of activities and tasks of daily living. Emphasizing self-care and community activities, they help to achieve maximum independence and enhance the quality of life for individuals in our care.
Speech Therapy
Speech Therapists help individuals to regain and improve critical communication, cognition, and swallowing skills to the patient's highest possible functional level.
Repiratory Therapy
The primary role of the respiratory therapist is to provide treatments and interventions to allow optimal pulmonary function. They focus on helping individuals to recover from respiratory illnesses.

Healthy diets and eating patterns can significantly impact an individual's ability to enjoy a better quality o flife. Through The Ambassador Lincoln's dietary services, a registered dietician provides therapeutic diets designed to reflect the varying ages and dietary needs of the residents we serve.

They act as an advocate for patients, residents, and families in the coordination of all aspects of their care and arrange the appropriate services when transitioning to their next level of care.
