About Worcester Rehabilitation & Health Care Center:
Worcester is a 146-bed skilled nursing facility specializing in residents managing substance use disorders. Our commitment to delivering high-quality care and customer service is matched by our dedication to creating a positive work environment for our employees.

"Worcester Rehab has been an extremely rewarding place to work. We serve a population that is often overlooked and underserved, providing compassionate care to residents who face significant challenges related to substance use disorder," Amy Oriakhi, Administrator, says. "One of the things I value most about working here is our nonjudgmental approach to care. We recognize that residents come to Worcester Rehab to recover from the health consequences of substance use, and we meet them where they are in their recovery journey. This perspective allows us to provide respectful, person-centered care while supporting each resident's individual needs. Although working with this population can present challenges, I find the work deeply meaningful. Being able to contribute to the health, dignity, and well-being of our residents is incredibly fulfilling, and I take pride in serving a community that is often marginalized. The opportunity to make a positive impact in residents' lives is what makes Worcester Rehab such a satisfying place to work."
