Whitestone Senior Living helps people who need assisted living and memory care, and accepts all ALTCS plans and VA benefits, so it's open to many kinds of families without a lot of confusion about payment, and has a license number AL12743C for up to 90 residents, which means there's room for a good community but it's not too big. The place has all-inclusive pricing, which means each person gets a private bedroom and their own clean bathroom-there's no shared rooms unless you've chosen to live with someone, so you get some dignity and quiet. The buildings are set up in these 10-bed cottages, which feel homelike and are cozy, so you don't feel lost in a crowd, and the grounds are gated, very green and landscaped, with walking paths and gazebos that give you a chance to enjoy nice weather or sit and relax if you want fresh air, and there are big common areas indoors where you can play games or talk with neighbors.
Whitestone offers a wide range of care like help with bathing, dressing, and managing medications, and it's got directed care, personal care, assisted living, and specialized memory care. The care team works around the clock, with nurses on staff, and a doctor and nurse always available on-call, so you can feel safer knowing someone's there day and night. For people with dementia or Alzheimer's, they've built something called the Rediscovery™ program, which uses sensory cues, calm spaces, and staff trained by Quality of Life Specialists to guide daily activities and prevent confusion or wandering-these are the Rediscovery residences designed for small groups, so residents feel more at ease with people at their same level. Social events and engaging activities happen every day, including a weekly Adult Day Club from Monday to Friday for folks who want a regular routine, and there's a variety of things to pick from like therapy sessions-physical, occupational, speech-along with life-enrichment programs that help keep the mind and body active.
Meals come three times a day, all cooked by a chef, with extra snacks if you get hungry between, and dining is in a family-style kitchen setup, so mealtime feels like home, with real conversation and not like a cafeteria. Whitestone lets residents keep pets, so people who aren't ready to part with a furry friend have that option, and the showers are wheelchair accessible so anyone no matter their abilities can use them safely. Beauty and barber services are right on site, and there's resident parking and plenty of transportation, making it easier to get to appointments or family visits. The staff doesn't discriminate on anything-race, religion, , or anything like that-and the point is to help everyone feel welcome and part of the community.
You can get hospice care and respite care, which is good if you need short-term help or are facing illness. Bedrooms are pretty spacious for comfort and privacy, and both indoor and outdoor areas are clean, safe, and designed to be easy to understand, especially for someone with memory problems. Staff members are considered professional and attentive, and there's a focus on helping each person keep their sense of belonging, dignity, and joy through meaningful activities and a friendly, comfortable place to live, so it's a place where life's routines and pleasures are kept up even as care needs change.
