Kendall At Hanover

Kendal at Hanover is a non-profit senior living community on 65 acres along the Connecticut River, offering several kinds of care and services for older adults who want choices as they age, and folks live there in over 200 independent living apartments in nine different styles, so there's something for many needs and preferences, and the community is built on Quaker-inspired values like trust, respect, and integrity. People can find independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, with a focus on serving those with Alzheimer's or high health needs, and there are health care choices ranging from diabetic and incontinence care to high acuity and non-ambulatory care, plus regular help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication reminders, and meals are made by chefs and meal planners working to keep things both nutritious and enjoyable. There's a special Dartmouth-Hitchcock Kendal Clinic right on site for primary care, and a whole team for geriatric care, including a medical director, geriatrician, and nurse practitioners, and people can also use rehabilitation care, hospice care, respite care, inpatient or outpatient services, and even get grief education or spiritual support when needed. Daily life at Kendal at Hanover centers on simple comforts like housekeeping, a barbershop, beauty salon, guesthouse for visitors, branch bank, gift shop, postal services, and a health clinic, along with indoor common areas, meal services, and community events, plus there are fitness classes, wellness programs, and opportunities for lifelong learning or intergenerational programs through the Early Learning Center, while folks who want devotional activities will find those, both on site and offsite, and the staff puts care into all the little details, trying to create a sense of belonging and genuine support without overdoing it or promising too much.
