Staff strive for care that fits each person's needs, interests, and abilities, trying to keep everything compassionate and respectful, and they make sure people have help with daily needs and medical support that's hard to match at home. The community accepts health insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid, and offers both short- and long-term options for seniors who want either independent living with just some help or more complete support from skilled nursing.
