Each person has specific preferences when it comes to personal care items like shampoo, soap, perfume, etc. If a special soap or shampoo is needed, please bring your own. Otherwise, shampoo and soap will be provided. By packing their favorite products and brands, they may feel more comfortable and at home in the new environment.

The goal of skilled nursing facilities is to make sure that their patients are comfortable. So, it is important to bring items from home that will make your loved one feel more comfortable.

Of course, you need to bring your loved one's medication and any medical equipment they will need. This includes things like oxygen tanks, wheelchairs, and walkers.

There are other things that you may want to bring to a skilled nursing facility. These include a calendar where all the important dates that your loved one needs to remember can be written down, a pen and paper to take notes and pictures of your loved one's friends and family. A record book to write memories in is also a great idea. This can be used as a place to journal about the day-to-day happenings, as well as a way to keep track of special events
