Overview of Summit by Morrison

Sixty-two beds, three levels of care, one address. That’s the basic shape of Summit by Morrison, a senior living community in Whitefield, New Hampshire, in Coos County’s North Country. Independent living, assisted living, and memory care all operate under the same roof here, administered by C Sarah Vaughan-France.

Getting around by foot isn’t really an option as the neighborhood is car-dependent, so residents and visiting family should plan to drive for errands, appointments, and anything off-campus. Inside, the housing mix covers more ground: independent living cottages and apartments, plus assisted living studios, priced from $3,806 and $3,859 per month, respectively.

Care support runs around the clock; licensed nurses and CNAs staff the community 24 hours a day, and residents can draw on rehabilitation services and respite care as needs arise. For residents with memory disorders, there’s a dedicated Memory Care Day Program built into the schedule rather than treated as an add-on.

That structure, independent living paired with a clear path into assisted living or memory care, is what defines Summit by Morrison. Families don’t have to choose a facility twice. A resident can move in as an independent tenant and, if care needs change, transition to a higher level of support without leaving the community they already know.

Overview of Langdon Place of Keene

Set on Arch Street in Keene, New Hampshire, Langdon Place of Keene is a 156-bed nursing home that has been part of the Cheshire County community for 25 years. It offers skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation alongside a dedicated 25-bed unit for residents with Alzheimer’s or dementia. The neighborhood is car-dependent (Walk Score 12), so getting around by foot isn’t realistic here; most visits mean driving in.

Right now the facility is running at 90% occupancy, with 140 of its 156 beds filled. The average stay is short, about 31 days, which fits a home doing meaningful post-acute and rehabilitation work alongside its longer-term nursing and memory care residents. Nursing coverage adds up to 4 hours and 8 minutes per resident each day, spread across registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides.

Residents recovering from surgery or illness have access to on-site rehabilitation services, so therapy doesn’t require a separate trip elsewhere. Jennifer Rousseau administers the facility. State inspection themes here have centered on medication management and staffing credentials.

Coverage-wise, Langdon Place of Keene takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so families have more than one route to financing care. Looking at the skilled nursing, the rehab services, and the memory care unit, this is a facility built to handle two different kinds of residents at once: people rehabbing after a hospital stay, and those settling in for longer-term nursing or dementia care.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in New Hampshire

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in New Hampshire?

Assisted living in New Hampshire supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in New Hampshire?

Assisted living in New Hampshire is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does New Hampshire Medicaid cover assisted living?

New Hampshire Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including New Hampshire) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 138 assisted living facilities in New Hampshire. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in New Hampshire?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in New Hampshire, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in New Hampshire?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
