Warde Senior Living expanding short-term rehabilitation program
WINDHAM – Warde Senior Living, a senior care community of Catholic Charities New Hampshire, is expanding its short-term rehabilitation program with the opening of a new rehabilitation unit featuring 16 new private rooms and baths.
The expansion comes in response to growing regional demand for short-term rehabilitation services for older adults recovering from illness, injury or surgery and preparing to return home.
“It’s clear there is an increasing demand for high-quality short-term skilled nursing and rehabilitation services in our region,” said Warde Administrator Shari LaRoche. “This new unit allows us to serve more residents across southern New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts while helping them safely and successfully transition from hospital and acute care settings back home.”
The rehabilitation unit brings Warde’s total skilled nursing capacity, featuring both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care services, to 48 private beds. Residents receive individualized care built around their unique needs and recovery journey. Services include physical, occupational and speech therapy, along with 24-hour skilled nursing care aimed at restoring strength, mobility and independence.
Warde provides a continuum of senior care services, including short-term rehabilitation, long-term care and assisted living. The 40-acre campus also includes Searles Place, an independent living community with 21 private, state-of-the-art apartments.
Warde was named among the nation’s top providers of short-term rehabilitation by U.S. News & World Report and recently received the 2026 Customer Service Experience Award from Activated Insights for excellence in customer service.
