Welcome To Elim Rehab & Care Center!
Elim Rehab & Care Center, Fargo is a 136 bed facility, providing 24-hour nursing care by licensed nursing staff who are trained for most sub-acute needs (i.e. tube feedings, IVs). Residents are each assigned a primary caregiver, which allows the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) to be familiar with the residents routine and build a relationship of trust.
Eden Alternative
Elim Care Center's commitment to improving our residents' quality of life has resulted in implementation of the innovative and award winning, Eden Alternative. This new program uses God's creation as its model living environment, understanding that a true "human habitat" is filled with biological diversity and harmony.
Elim Care Center's "human habitat" is characterized by:
- Children - Elim Children's Center, located within Elim Care Center, is an intergenerational daycare/preschool.
- Animals - Dogs, cats, rabbits and birds live at Elim Care Center too.
- Plants - Gardens inside and out are the norm.
Caring for plants and watching them grow is fun for all - residents, children and staff alike. The Eden Alternative allow residents at Elim Care Center to revel and thrive in fresh ways amidst the presence of our children, animals and plants.
