From the moment they arrive, skilled teams of nurses, therapists, and physicians collaborate to develop personalized care plans—whether for assisted living, long-term residency, rehabilitation, respite stays, or skilled nursing—with a respectful and attentive approach.
Assisted Living & Long‑Term Care
Residents needing daily support are met with comforting consistency and independence. Caregivers assist with routines like bathing, dressing, and medications, while promoting autonomy and connection. Meals are shared in a community-style dining room with a focus on taste and nutrition. Lounges, outdoor patios, and the on-site salon provide spaces for conversation, relaxation, or creative pursuits. Background services—like housekeeping, laundry, cable, Wi‑Fi, and transportation—are managed seamlessly to keep daily life dignified and stress-free.
Rehabilitation Care
Focused on recovery, the rehabilitation program helps residents regain strength and mobility after surgery, illness, or injury. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists guide custom exercise routines and functional training in a fully equipped gym and Activities-of-Daily-Living suite. Enhanced modalities such as electrical stimulation and diathermy are available as needed. Nutrient-rich meals and ongoing clinical oversight support recovery, all aimed at helping residents return home with confidence.
Skilled Nursing
Residents with complex medical needs have 24/7 access to skilled nursing care from RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and physicians. Services include IV therapy, wound and ostomy care under physician guidance, incontinence support, fall prevention, and cardiopulmonary assistance. On-site lab services, podiatry, and geriatric psychiatry support comprehensive, dignified care within a safe and uplifting environment.
Respite Care
Respite stays offer short-term, supportive care for recovery needs or caregiver relief. Guests have full access to skilled nursing and rehabilitation services, nourishing meals, scheduled therapy, housekeeping, and opportunities for social connection. The setting feels restorative and respectful, harmonizing clinical excellence with thoughtful comfort.
