  • Medication Set-up
  • Wound Care
  • Blood Draws
  • Diabetes Management

Nursing Services are available to people in Savannah and Chatham County with short or long-term disabilities and/or those age 55 years and older. There is a fee for this service. 

“SCI is fortunate to provide such a range of services under one roof. We care about our community and, in turn, the community has a great deal of faith in us. We feel a strong responsibility to grow and provide on-going services to benefit the people of Coastal Georgia,” added House.
