Cudahy Place Senior Living offers care for older adults who need help with daily activities but want some independence, and folks sometimes find it a good lower-cost choice compared to a nursing home, though you'll have to check about Medicare because they don't accept it unless they have certification from CMS. The place holds a license from state or local authorities and gets regular inspections, so families usually get some peace of mind about their loved ones' safety. There are 48 licensed beds in total since it's set up as a Community Based Residential Facility, and you'll find both studio and companion apartments, most with private or accessible bathrooms, kitchen nooks, microwaves, and refrigerators, and folks can even bring their cats or dogs along since they're pet-friendly.
Cudahy Place gives laundry and dry-cleaning services, helps out with linens, and has housekeeping, so chores aren't a worry, and there's a culinary team that makes three meals a day plus guest meals for when visitors come by. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy can be done onsite, and there's always a nurse around to help with medication and skilled care. Residents get all sorts of transportation, whether it's scheduled rides out for trips and field outings, rides to appointments, or just need to go somewhere, and there are amenities like a beauty salon, spa, a library, café, TV lounge, and community rooms.
Outdoors, residents can spend time on landscaped walking paths, garden in the patio area with raised planters, or relax in the enclosed courtyard, which gives everyone some fresh air and a safe place to walk. The Life Enrichment team keeps the social calendar busy with games, exercise classes, themed parties, piano music, bus trips, and plenty of chances to drink cocoa by the fire or join devotional services. Care staff is always around, offering help with daily needs like bathing and dressing, and working with the residents to set up a care plan that works for each person since not everyone needs the same level of help.
For memory care, they're equipped to support people living with dementia or Alzheimer's, using secure common areas and structured activities designed to help maintain skills, with specialized staff training for compassionate support, and they've said even more memory care options are coming soon to help at all stages. They do short-term respite care, where someone can stay for a little while, which helps families who need a break or some extra care. Residents can age in place with support for different needs as they change, and they can have special diets for health, whether that's low-sugar, no-salt, vegetarian, or gluten-free. The aim at Cudahy Place is to make a secure and welcoming community where seniors have choices, company, and comfort, so everyone's life keeps meaning and purpose, whether that's reading by the fire, getting to appointments, or just enjoying a good meal in the dining room with friends.
