Coble Creek Healthcare and Rehabilitation recently had its annual survey and certification process as required by federal law. We are proud to announce that we earned a DEFICIENCY FREE SURVEY! Each year a team of state employees conducts an intense review of our facility to ensure that we are meeting all state and federal standards of care. The surveyors spent some time visiting with our residents, families and staff to get a good idea of what life is like here in Coble Creek.They evaluated all aspects of care including quality of life, regulatory compliance, resident rights, nursing care, activities programming, and environmental standards. The last available stats for surveys show less than 7% of nursing facilities in the United States receive a deficiency-free status.Coble Creek Administrator Lauren Cook states, "These survey results are validation for all of us; the dedication, love and quality care that we give every day is making a difference."

Lanes of Light 2018  was a tremendous success! Through our community's efforts and the broader community's support, 26.5 TONS of food was donated to The Salvation Army food ministries. Lanes of Light is an award-winning mile-long drive through Twin Lakes Community dressed in holiday style. Through the joint efforts of our staff and residents, our 215 acre campus is transformed into a winter wonderland filled with festive fun. Dozens of illuminated trees, a sixty-foot sea serpent, and other holiday designs create a beautiful reflection as they float on our lakes. A larger-than-life Toyland with a live jack-in-the-box is the delight of children young and old. Those displays as well as all other wooden designs are the creation of our resident woodworkers and artists. Additional displays are designed and created each year. Santa, Mrs. Claus, The Grinch, and Frosty the Snowman are always dressed in full holiday attire to greet visitors. And, the favorite of all visitors is the residents of Twin Lakes who enthusiastically stand at their court entrances wishing every visitor a Merry Christmas! Requested admission is canned food or a monetary donation for the benefit of The Salvation Army food pantries. Through Lanes of Light, a true labor of love, over 245 tons of food has been given to local food ministries. Please join us for Lanes of Light 2019, December 7th and 8th, 2019!
