Residents also have access to on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy through ancillary partnerships to promote functional recovery. Healthcare professionals are available 24/7 to manage individualized care plans and coordinate with external physicians as needed.
The 69,311-square-foot campus features studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments equipped with kitchenettes and 24-hour emergency call systems. Many assisted living units also offer private patios that open directly onto landscaped central courtyards. All-inclusive services cover weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and a culinary program that provides heart-healthy and brain-boost menu options.
Common areas include a private movie theater, a library, a full-service salon, and secure outdoor walking paths designed for safe exploration. For spiritual and recreational needs, the facility offers a variety of on-site activities and scheduled transportation for community shopping and medical appointments.
