Sunapee Cove Assisted Living & Memory Care sits right by Lake Sunapee, where you can look out at the water and see Mount Sunapee, and that view really makes the whole place feel calm and open, especially with their big, bright apartments that have open layouts and kitchenettes, and folks can choose from several floor plans, some with lakeside vistas that make the whole room seem a little cheerier. They've made the community pet-friendly and accessible, so people with different needs have an easier time, and there's high-speed Wi-Fi throughout if you want to stay in touch or get online easily. The staff are there around the clock, ready to help with things like bathing, dressing, medication, and whatever else someone might need in daily life, and there's a 24-hour call system in every apartment, too. In the memory care area, the staff get special training to help people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and they use something called Touchstone Cognitive Health that focuses on purpose, gratitude, laughter, music, social times, exercise, and Montessori-style activities that aim to keep minds engaged and spirits up.
You'll find a dining program that pulls local foods from New Hampshire into balanced, tasty meals, all based on ideas from the MIND Diet so you know it's put together with health in mind, and there's a nice dining room where folks eat together if they want to. They offer private transportation to take residents to medical appointments and set up outings on a motorcoach to local spots, while the lakeside dock and pontoon boat give people the chance for a bit of time outdoors and fresh air when the weather's nice. The amenities run to a fitness center, a whirlpool spa, a salon, and places to relax inside or out, plus there's weekly housekeeping and laundry that keep things in order without much fuss on the part of residents. The activities calendar is full of crafts, movies, games, and social times, so people have a chance to stay busy or meet new friends, and the community has picked up awards for its activities and for creating an environment where warmth and friendliness show up in daily life, especially during moves and transitions. People often mention the staff's kindness, and the whole place gets checked and licensed regularly, which gives peace of mind about the level of care. There are also respite care and short-term rehabilitation services, designed for folks who only need a temporary stay or help after a hospital visit. Overall, Sunapee Cove keeps a focus on safety, dignity, and each resident's independence, and you'll find honesty, professionalism, and a real commitment to each person's well-being running through the way they do things.
