Improved Living House 1 stands as a small residential care home with only 10 senior apartments and assisted living units, which keeps things cozy and easier for folks to get to know each other, and the staff helps residents with daily tasks like bathing, getting dressed, taking medicine, and moving around if needed, and if someone has memory challenges like dementia or Alzheimer's, there's a memory care service with support for things like incontinence and Parkinson's care too. The place has a mix of studio apartments and single bedroom spaces, and folks can even share rooms if that works better for them, plus there's a keyless entry system for peace of mind and safety measures in all the units, so residents feel secure. There's 24-hour staff supervision with nurses on-call, monthly check-ups from both a doctor and a registered nurse, and regular preventive health checks to help keep everyone in good shape, and they manage medications and diabetic needs as well.
Residents get chef-prepared meals every day, with special diets for allergies and diabetes when needed, and snacks are always around if someone gets hungry between meals, plus the place stays tidy because there's cleaning and housekeeping of the apartments and help with laundry including dry cleaning, and families can visit anytime during the welcoming hours, with parking set aside for them. People and their pets feel at home since the building's pet-friendly, and with all apartment and community maintenance handled, there's less to worry about for residents or their loved ones.
There's a lot to do, since the activity calendar is pretty full, so residents can take part in arts and crafts, attend computer classes, or spend time in community spaces like the furnished dining room, the game room, the exercise section, or the spacious library, and for recreation there's a movie theater room, garden, walking trails, and an arts room for creativity. Residents like the off-site trips, picnics, and outings that staff organize for them and their families, and every month there's a wellness check by the doctor to keep tabs on everyone's health. Extra care like massage therapy is offered, and there's an on-site salon for haircuts and grooming, as well as a barber, with large TVs and daily entertainment so folks can relax or gather together, and with the emergency alert system and emergency pendants, people feel safe throughout the place.
The community assists with movement, bathing, continence, and transfers, and there are programs to help with Parkinson's as well, along with tailored care plans for each person, so their needs get met without things getting too rigid. Short-term respite care is available for those whose usual caregivers need a break, and every resident gets support at the intermediate level, which is above simple independent living but less than a full nursing home. There's a family-like feel most folks notice, with staff keeping an eye on everyone while still allowing privacy, and plenty of help for people who aren't able to live alone but don't need around-the-clock medical care. Regular wellness programs, health monitoring, and activities make life a little easier and a lot more pleasant for the folks living in Improved Living House 1.
