Salma (SCRH) provides a variety of services which help meet both the medical and non-medical needs of our residents who suffer from chronic illness or disability and who cannot be cared for in their home environment. Focused on individualized and coordinated services that promote independence, maximize patients’ quality of life and meet patients’ needs.
Providing a complex level of medical care for ventilated patients with multiple chronic conditions, requires highly skilled staff. Long-term care provides also custodial and non-skilled care; assisting with ADL’S like dressing, feeding, and toileting. Long-term care with the younger population includes both their physical and cognitive needs being met.
Developmental delays are common with children who have spent a large aspect or all their life in an acute hospital setting; premature neonates, long term illness, severe trauma patients. Sensory stimulation provides many benefits such as increased communication, environmental awareness, relaxation, cognitive stimulation, opportunity to build a rapport, enjoyment of a leisure experience, increased quality of life and much more.
Patients who may not always improve or develop physically have the opportunity and availability to develop in other aspects and domains of their lives. At Salma Hospital residents will enjoy progress in quality of life. This will also enhance the family integration and involvement to the resident’s life experience.
But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful.

No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?
