Worker Bee offers a wide range of care for older adults, and you'll see they provide medical and daily support for people with assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living needs, so if someone's just needing help with things like bathing and dressing or they need more medical care after surgery or illness, there are different options, with care running all the way up to 24-hour supervision and memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia. There are also board and care homes that provide a smaller, home-like setting for small groups of residents who may want a more quiet place, and the community's got different rooms, both private and semi-private, across its neighborhoods, along with suite-assisted living and continuing care retirement community options, so there's help for people as health needs change. The staff assists with daily activities, medication, meals, grooming, bathing, dressing, laundry, transfers, and coordination with outside doctors, and the team speaks English.
They've got safety features like emergency alert and call systems, infection control, and 24-hour support. For those needing skilled care, you'll find services like rehabilitation, wound care, and comprehensive nursing, and memory care includes special programs and activities designed to support people's memory and daily lives. The facilities are built with conveniences such as furnished rooms, wheelchair access, meal service, and move-in help. Amenities in the community include walking paths, gardens, dining rooms, housekeepers, laundry, a salon, transportation, parking, arts rooms, and a choice of meals, including foods for those with allergies or diabetes.
