A Mission of Serving

At the heart of Sunnyside Village is a calling to serve others — a mission that began more than 50 years ago and continues to guide everything we do today. The Health and Rehabilitation Center stands as the cornerstone of that mission, carrying forward the legacy of the original Sunnyside Rest Home.

Rooted in Christian compassion, we are dedicated to sharing God’s love by serving others with kindness, honesty, and respect. Every resident and patient receives nurturing support designed not only to meet their medical needs but also to enhance comfort, dignity, and meaningful living.

Compassionate Care at Every Stage

Our Health and Rehabilitation Center provides a full continuum of specialized services — all within the familiar, faith-based warmth of Sunnyside Village.

Long-Term Comprehensive Care

For those who call the Health Center home, we offer ongoing nursing care in a setting that feels welcoming and family-like. Our compassionate team provides personal attention, meaningful engagement, and consistent, high-quality care that promotes comfort and connection.

Short-Term Rehabilitative Care

For patients recovering after hospitalization or surgery, our skilled therapy and nursing teams create personalized recovery plans to help each individual regain strength, mobility, and independence — with the goal of returning home confidently and safely. Insert photo from photo gallery page:

Outpatient Therapy Services

Recovery doesn’t end when you return home — and neither does our commitment to your well-being. Sunnyside’s Outpatient Therapy offers continued physical, occupational, and speech therapy for residents and community members alike. Our licensed therapists work one-on-one to develop customized treatment plans focused on maintaining strength, improving mobility, preventing future injury, and supporting a healthy, active lifestyle. With convenient access on our campus and the same caring professionals who know your story, you can continue your progress in a comfortable and familiar environment.

Palliative Care

Our palliative care services focus on comfort, peace, and quality of life. With compassion and understanding, our team provides expert support for individuals facing serious illness — relieving pain and symptoms while offering emotional and spiritual care for both the patient and their family.

For decades, Sunnyside Health and Rehabilitation Center has been recognized among the region’s most trusted and respected providers of comprehensive skilled nursing care.
