Valley Manor Assisted Living in Rochester, New York, sits under the guidance of a faith-based, nonprofit organization that's known to offer a continuum of senior care services in a close-knit community they call Valley Manor, and while it's licensed as an Enhanced Housing Program with 13 assisted living units and 13 licensed beds under New York #AF0685A, the place focuses on providing personal and specialized care types for different needs, whether someone's looking for independent living, retirement living, or needs more support through assisted living or Alzheimer's care, and even has non-ambulatory care and support for Parkinson's disease. This community's buildings have one-bedroom and well-equipped studio units, many with balconies, ADA-compliant bathrooms, and grab bars in the right spots for those who need extra help, and if someone needs spoon feeding, bathroom help, or low-mobility support, the trained and caring staff are there day or night, with awake staff always around and a licensed nurse on call every hour of every day, plus they help with bathing, dressing, medication management, transfers, and anything else that comes up with daily living.
There's a full-service beauty salon, a bistro offering snacks and restaurant-style meals, and all-day dining in the dining room, where the staff work with dietary needs, manage allergies, and plan for diabetes diets. For entertainment and activity, there are daily options, movie nights in the media room, arts and crafts, a busy calendar of events and community-sponsored get-togethers, and even AquaFit classes and Sunday brunch buffets, while those looking for quiet can settle into the library with over 3,000 books, walk in the gardens, or rest on the outdoor patio. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen services take care of everyday chores, and with transportation services and valet parking, visiting is easier for families, who can also get support through family counseling and guidance. Health and wellness are a main concern, so the health and fitness center, indoor heated therapeutic pool, whirlpool, on-site physical therapy, and massage services are part of the daily routine, alongside scheduled doctor checkups, medication management, resident wellness programs, fall prevention programs, and ongoing health screening. There are emergency alert systems throughout, so if anything happens, there's quick help, and all utilities are included in the units.
Staff offer computer classes, help with move-in coordination, and work closely with healthcare providers so each resident gets care tailored to their needs, especially those living with dementia or Alzheimer's, who benefit from caregivers with special training. Residents get furnished rooms if needed, personal needs services, and concierge service, with parking available for family members and walking paths around the property. The community isn't certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for Medicare payments but aims to offer lower long-term care costs than full-time nursing homes and tries to support both residents and their families by providing peace of mind, sound assistance, and a straightforward approach to care, all within 1530 East Ave in Rochester under its "Retirement Communities" category, doing what needs to be done each day, quietly, with attention and dignity.
