Home of the Good Shepherd in Saratoga Springs, NY, offers nursing home and skilled nursing care. Assisted living and memory care are listed on the same license. Four levels of care share 42 licensed beds.
An assisted living resident here has staff for dressing, bathing, and medication. Skilled nursing means a licensed nurse is on the floor every hour, and overnight staff are included. Supervision and a secure space are what memory care provides around a resident at risk of wandering.
Because all four levels are licensed at the one address, a resident whose needs grow can move up without moving out. Recovery work is what rehabilitation services are listed for. Respite runs short and is booked around whatever takes the usual caregiver away.
Social events, exercise classes, and creative workshops fill out the calendar. Walker’s paradise is what a Walk Score of 97 means, and errands from this address do not need a car. The community is operated by The Church Aid of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Town of Saratoga Springs, Inc. The setting suits somebody whose dementia has reached the point of needing supervision.
