Meals come home-cooked three times a day, and the kitchen pays special attention to dietary and therapeutic needs, using quality ingredients and listening to doctor's orders when it comes to nutrition, and there are always healthy snacks and drinks available too. Housekeeping and laundry are handled for residents, so they don't have to worry about chores, and a beauty shop and barber are on-site. There's a focus on keeping people active and involved; residents are encouraged to join in exercise programs, religious services, crafts, music, games, movies, and outings to help them stay social and active. Memory care is offered for folks with dementia or Alzheimer's, and therapy services like physical, occupational, and speech are provided by certified staff.
