Bedside support is coordinated 24/7 by a team of licensed nurses and professional caregivers trained in Validation techniques to better understand resident needs. The clinical model integrates an on-site physician, podiatry, and hospice care, with full-service rehabilitative therapy provided through a partnership with Empower Me Wellness. Clinical tracking focuses on specialized Parkinson’s and Lewy Body dementia support, including diabetes management and routine incontinence care.
For safety, the facility features secured entry/exit systems and 24-hour emergency monitoring to manage wandering risks.
