The Landing of Poughkeepsie offers several types of care, so you'll see people in independent living, assisted living, and memory care here, and the place is managed by Discovery Management Group, which is part of a larger network, so there's structure but you can also find a bit of personal touch. Residents get help with daily needs when they want it, from a staff that's trained to offer support with respect and dignity, and the staff keeps an eye on everyone's health so issues don't sneak up. There are programs set up for military veterans too, and every resident has their own care plan, which the staff updates during the year as things change, so loved ones won't be left out if someone needs more care later on. The building's got secure areas and locked doors, mainly for folks needing memory support, and there's a courtyard where people can get fresh air without worrying about wandering or getting lost.
People here can eat meals together in the dining room, and meals come from chefs, not a steam tray in the back, so the food has some care put into it, and there are beauty and salon services on-site if someone wants a haircut or a wash. There are lots of rooms for joining in, so you see people gathering in indoor common spaces to catch up or join activities, and the activity calendar is packed with social, educational, and entertainment options, plus the staff arranges outings for those who feel up to it. If someone's spiritual life is important to them, they can head out for devotional services held off the property. For people needing physical or occupational therapy, those services are available on-site, which means one less thing to arrange outside. There's also medication management and even an in-house pharmacy, laundry and housekeeping, and scheduled rides for appointments or grocery trips.
Assisted living residents get the help they need while still doing things on their own when they can, and memory care residents find routines and activities designed to help with memory and reduce confusion, and there are security measures in place for safety. The staff is around 24 hours a day, so someone's always there when needed. For folks who enjoy technology, the community uses Meta Pay and has access to things like Meta Store, Meta Quest, Ray-Ban Meta, Meta AI, Instagram, and Threads, and people can log in with Facebook and Messenger if they want to keep up with friends or family online.
Anyone interested can set up a tour ahead of time or reach out with questions through the website, and the community inquiry service helps people learn what life could look like here. The Landing of Poughkeepsie does its best to build a sense of safety and community, focusing on each person's independence and needs, and it stays open at all hours, so help's always close by.
