Summercrest
Summercrest offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Newport, NH. Independent living means private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living includes help with dressing, bathing, medication, and other daily tasks. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for a resident at risk of wandering. Respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Several care levels are available here. As a resident’s needs grow, they may be able to move to a different level without leaving Summercrest or starting over socially. The community has 53 beds and opened in 1998, with John H Frisbee serving as administrator. An all-day café and market gives residents an on-site place for refreshments or shopping during the day, and pets are allowed for residents who want to keep one with them. A Walk Score of 61 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so residents who no longer drive can make certain nearby trips independently.
