Residents get daily help with personal needs like bathing, dressing, medication, transfers, and incontinence, and there's a registered nurse doing regular health checkups and assessments, plus support for Parkinson's disease, memory care, and rehabilitation services if that's needed. The apartments have handy grab bars and emergency buttons in both rooms and common areas, and there's wheelchair access, in-room pull cords, and even washers and dryers in some units.
Meals are made for everyone with specific dietary needs like diabetes or special restrictions, and the dining hall serves three meals each day, with snacks between if you're hungry, and there's a private dining room for special occasions too, with on-site catering when needed. There's a big focus on keeping people active and social, so the home has arts and crafts classes, creative games, movie nights in the in-house theatre, an exercise and fitness room, group entertainment, music, and a library for quiet reading. Outdoors, there are landscaped gardens, balconies, walking trails, and porches, so residents can sit outside or take a stroll if the weather is nice.
Staff handle housekeeping, picking up and changing linens, laundry, medication support, and will arrange for transportation to doctor's visits or errands, with home upkeep provided too, and there's always someone around to lend a hand with whatever comes up. Special features include ADA-compliant bathrooms, health monitoring by the nurse, fall prevention programs, massage therapy, and even a snack shop, while computer classes and a concierge service offer a little extra for anyone interested. People living here can take part in scheduled activities every day, so there's always something going on if you want to join others in the community spaces, and you get the choice between a little privacy or more communal living, depending on what fits best. Central Ave Group Home is meant to be a comfortable, structured place to live for seniors who need help with daily life, with a staff that tries hard to give care that fits each resident's needs while making things feel safe, friendly, and a bit like home, and with a capacity set for only six beds, it stays quiet and feels close-knit, so folks get to know each other and the staff by name.
