Mondell Heights Retirement Community sits at 106 East Main Street in Newcastle, Wyoming, right up against the Black Hills, and it's a calm spot where folks can settle in and know help's always close if they need it, since staff stay on-site around the clock and there's a 24-hour call system. Residents get weekly housekeeping and laundry, and the facility does provide meals each day-three nutritious ones plus snacks-and there's always someone to help with special diets or food allergies if a person needs it, and meals get planned by those who know how to keep food tasty and safe for older folks. There's a staffed salon and barber to keep up with haircuts and such, walking paths if somebody wants fresh air, a garden out back for quiet time, and a well-used arts room for anyone who enjoys crafts or painting; people organize community-sponsored activities to keep everyone busy, active, and social, sometimes with games, sometimes with music, or something to get hands moving.
Rooms come furnished, most are private and some have kitchenettes, and every room's got a telephone. Transportation is available, whether a trip's for groceries, appointments, church, visits to the town center-which is pretty close by-or to reach doctors and other healthcare services in the area, though there's also help with healthcare coordination and medication management right inside the community, guided by a registered nurse. The folks living here can get help with bathing, dressing, continence care, and anything else they need for daily life, whether they walk on their own or use a wheelchair, and if someone's having memory problems, staff can provide memory care in a safer area made to lessen confusion and wandering. Mondell Heights holds a Level I Assisted Living Facility license from Wyoming and can accept Medicaid.
The community's got a friendly and caring staff, many folks say they're helpful and always glad to chat or lend a hand, and a set of awards like Best of Senior Living shows others have noticed that too. There are plenty of senior-focused resources too, like advice and planning for finances, paying for care, legal questions, insurance, and even a catalog for senior products like shoes or safety alerts. Whether someone chooses assisted living, independent living, or needs Alzheimer's care and other kinds of support, Mondell Heights Retirement Community tries to balance independence with the right level of help, making the place feel safe, relaxed, and respectful, giving a bit of comfort to families and residents both.
