The place carries a friendly atmosphere and feels welcoming, with staff who work around the clock to give help with things like dressing, grooming, medication, and moving about, plus a focus on care for seniors, including those needing long-term care or Alzheimer's care. The building has wide hallways, skylights that let in good natural light, and barrier-free areas, and each of the 40 private rooms comes with a full private bathroom, air conditioning, kitchens or kitchenettes, safety features, and a sprinkler system, so folks can feel comfortable and safe whether they're in a shared or private suite.
Meals are made by chefs and meal planners, served three times a day with snacks, and they can change diets for health needs like diabetes or hypertension, which helps residents stay healthy, along with personal laundry, housekeeping, and help from staff when bathing or using the bathroom. The community offers many activities like arts and crafts, social events, devotional times, game rooms, a book room, a garden, music, animal therapy, and sometimes movie nights or outings; there's even a spa and steam room, plus plenty of space inside and out for relaxing, visiting with neighbors, or sitting in the sun.
Transportation's arranged for shopping, doctor's appointments, errands, or faith-based activities, while health services cover medication management (including insulin), wound care, incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, and even hospice and respite care if needed. Nurses, personal care assistants, and occupational therapists are always ready to help with whatever comes up, and there's always supervision and a 24-hour call system to make sure residents get help quickly. Internet, cable TV, and phone access are standard, and there's a focus on making the whole setting feel homey, with pleasant spaces for dining and large areas for group activities or private chats.
Residents get to keep their independence as much as possible, with personalized care plans based on their own needs and adjustments as those needs change, whether they're living independently or need more help. With all the activities-arts, music, wellness, games, outings, or simply sitting outside-plus all the services from daily care to medical support, The Terrace | Basic Care Community focuses on providing a peaceful, social, and safe place for seniors and peace of mind for their families.
