This residential care home has room for up to 8 residents in a family-like setting, offering both private rooms at $4,200 a month and semi-private ones at $3,800. The place has single bedrooms, studio suites, and shared apartment options, all of them with pull cords, emergency pendants, ADA-compliant private bathrooms, and even a washer and dryer, so people don't have to leave for basic needs.

The care team helps with daily activities like bathing, dressing, getting up, mobility, toileting, and more, giving extra support to those with dementia, Alzheimer's, or Parkinson's. There's help for diabetes, high acuity care, incontinence support, and medication management, too. Meals-three a day plus snacks-are home-cooked, served fresh in the community dining room, with dietary needs like pureed foods taken into account. Staff take care of laundry, housekeeping, bed making, linens, and even help with moving in. There's also a nurse on site for emergencies and monthly check-ups, and a licensed physician reviews health every month.
Fidelis Care V puts an emphasis on personalized care, with a high caregiver-to-resident ratio, so each person can get a custom plan that fits what they need, and there's always someone nearby to help day or night. People can join creative arts and crafts, bingo, card games, therapy, fitness activities, wellness programs, preventive screenings, and group outings. There's a reading room for quiet time, daily entertainment, beauty care days, and spiritual support. Concierge services help with appointments or special requests, and transportation gets folks to where they need to go, whether it's a doctor's office or an off-site activity. Family members can stay for short visits, and respite care is offered if a primary caregiver needs a break.
