We also offer some “above and beyond” services that we thought you’d like to hear about:
Rehabilitation Therapy
Physical, occupational, and speech therapists develop customized treatment goals that help each resident maximize his or her potential. Most of the residents that are admitted to our facility are able to return home or back to their assisted living facilities after treatment and rehabilitation.

Restorative Therapy
As an adjunct to skilled therapy, restorative nursing offers services promote independence via programs such as movement, range of motion exercises, and restorative dining. In addition, our therapists provide input to our Activity team to suggest activities that might help residents improve their functioning without even realizing that they’re in “treatment.” In this way, rehabilitation doesn’t stop when a resident leaves the therapy room—they can continue to improve as they enjoy lots of fun and interesting activities throughout their stay.
Special Unit and Structured Day Program for Residents With Dementia
Residents with dementia need a little extra help navigating the routines of daily life. Predictability, structure, and familiar faces help ease their confusion and anxiety, making their days easier and more enjoyable. Our Dementia Unit provides this environment. In addition, this unit, while not locked, is housed in a closed door area of the building. With a cozy dining room and a lovely patio, residents have a comfortable, friendly area that feels more like home.

Bariatric Facilities
Often, residents with obesity find it difficult to locate a comfortable place to rehabilitate. For those residents with bariatric issues, we offer specialized beds, chairs, wheelchairs, and shower facilities.
