With 52 licensed beds, the community currently operates at a 40% occupancy rate and maintains round-the-clock staffing. Nearby amenities and services are also available within walking distance, as the community is set in a highly walkable neighborhood.

Promoting socialization and engagement, the community’s services center on daily comfort and community access. Three nutritious meals are provided each day with dietary accommodations available as needed. Moreover, a schedule of activities and special events encourages social interaction, while complimentary local transportation is available for outings and appointments.
