Avalon Assisted Living sits at 1629 Route 376 in Wappingers Falls, NY, in a place that used to be a hotel for airline passengers and pilots, and later the Reckess family renovated and grew the main residential wing, so you'll find a blend of newer spaces and areas with a bit more character, and the community welcomes up to 76 residents for assisted living care, running all day and night so someone's always there. The practice's main focus is on supporting older folks who want help with daily tasks while keeping some independence, which means staff are on hand to help with dressing, bathing, meals, medicine, and other needs that can crop up. Avalon aims to feel like home and fosters connections among residents, offering group activities, creative workshops, and different social events for folks who want things to do besides just sitting in their rooms, and warm community areas serve as places to relax or meet others.
The staff, made up of dedicated caregivers and trained medical folks, try to make sure everyone's safe and well, keep up with medication, and help keep people moving if they want to. Services change with each resident's needs, so some might get more daily help and others less. Avalon's got a wellness focus, which covers not only physical health but also emotional and spiritual wellbeing-so you'll see efforts to help people feel connected and valued. The whole place is owned and run by PAZ, though they've leased it out to a licensed operator to handle the health care side of things, and the place takes residents who have Medicare. You'll find all the basic amenities common to assisted living places, like personalized support around the clock, meals, laundry, and comfortable areas to sit and spend time, and the staff aim to keep up a place where seniors feel looked after but never feel like outsiders in their own home. Avalon started operating under its current provider number in 2008 and keeps a pretty steady presence, focusing on wellness care and a homelike routine for every resident.
