Kendal at Ithaca

2230 North Triphammer Road, Ithaca, NY 14850
Overview of Kendal at Ithaca

On one license in Ithaca, NY, Kendal at Ithaca offers independent living, assisted living, nursing home care, and skilled nursing.

Community services without daily care behind them are what independent living means here. Assisted living adds daily care to help with dressing, bathing, and medication management to what independent living provides. Skilled nursing is the level at which the care needs a nurse’s credential.

Moving up a level here does not mean moving away, which is what four care levels on one license allow. With 36 beds, this is a small community, and in one that size, nobody stays a stranger.

Room types run to Cottages, Apartments, Studio, One-Bedroom, and One-Bedroom with Den. A studio is one living space, and the larger layouts suit a couple or a resident wanting more space. Pets are allowed, with a Dog Park named among the amenities for residents who bring one.

A Workshop, Aviaries, Winemaking, and Tennis are all also on the amenity list. Walking Access to Retail and Transportation are named as well.

A time-limited recovery stay goes under Short-Term Rehab, and the service list carries Rehabilitation Services as well. Enhanced Assisted Living and Long-Term Nursing Care are here for anybody needing either. The walker’s paradise category applies at the area’s 91 Walk Score, so a resident who has stopped driving still gets around on foot.

Two payers only. Those are Medicare and private pay. Medicare is for those brief skilled stretches that come after a hospital discharge, and the family’s own money is what private pay draws from. Five hours and 23 minutes of nursing stands behind each resident every day.
