Overview of D‘youville Life and Wellness Community D’youville Life and Wellness Community offers nursing home, assisted living, hospice care, independent living, memory care, and skilled nursing in Lowell, MA. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks while a resident keeps a private living space, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Independent living supports private living without daily care. Nursing home and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while hospice care supports residents with life-limiting illness.
The range of care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since moving to another level of care can happen within the same community. D’youville Life and Wellness Community opened in 1960. With 208 beds, it is a larger community with more residents and staff and usually more programming.
Private rooms give each resident a single private space rather than shared accommodation. Short-stay rehabilitation is available for a temporary recovery period, and the community has an Alzheimer’s Special Care program. Pets are allowed, so residents who have pets can consider keeping their companions with them.
Total nurse staffing is 3h 54m per resident each day, representing the daily hands-on nurse time allocated per resident. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicaid may help when a family’s savings do not cover a long stay, Medicare can cover short-term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long-term residence, and private pay allows payment from personal funds.
