Since 1969, Field Crest Care Center has been offering skilled nursing care. The following decades brought two expansions, and in 2005, Field Crest began offering Assisted Living services in a remodeled wing of the facility.

Field Crest Care Center provides a wide variety of services to meet an individual’s needs, including inpatient and outpatient physical, occupational and speech therapy. Short term skilled nursing care is also available for those in need of rehabilitation services.
