Northwood Residence sits in Salem, IN, and gives seniors a quiet, home-like place to live with several care choices like independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, and residential care home services, all managed by Ms. Leah Spurgeon, Owner/Operator, and a team of trained caregivers and healthcare staff who help with daily needs such as dressing, bathing, and medicine management, and these caregivers are around to help when needed but also let folks keep their independence when possible. The place features big private rooms with bathrooms for comfort and privacy, an open living and dining room filled with sunlight, a balcony out back looking over the woods, and a south-facing covered porch for watching traffic and chickens in the yard, plus a patio and a wheelchair ramp for easy access, and lots of windows for natural light, all of which make the setting calm and peaceful and good for people who want a quieter, more private living situation than you'd always find in larger, busier places.
Seniors here get plenty of chances to join social, educational, and entertaining activities, with a regular calendar that keeps folks active and helps them make friends, and the staff offer meals and services like laundry and provide help with therapy for those with Alzheimer's or memory loss, all in spaces meant to lower confusion and keep wandering in check, focused on promoting health, happiness, and a sense of community among everyone living here. Northwood Residence holds a 6.5 review score based on feedback from residents and families, and it welcomes people with different care needs, whether they need just a little bit of help or daily support, even specialized dementia care, and the grounds sit close to churches of many types, parks like Delaney Park and Salem Community Park, several restaurants, three pharmacies, and four hospitals, so residents don't have to go far for medical care, dining out, or some time in nature. Families who are thinking about moving a loved one here can check ratings, reviews, and pricing through the community's website, read about the place on the blog or about page, or talk to senior living advisors for guidance, and the facility answers reviews and makes sure they're verified, which can help families feel more confident about their choice.
The home has a schedule for trips to town, which gives folks a way to stay part of the wider community, and there are special programs and amenities named for different features, so people can find something that fits what they want, and the staff works to give each person the care and support that's right for them, whether that's daily help with bathing and getting dressed or just a friendly face around the house. Northwood Residence runs with business hours from 8AM to 9PM on weekdays and 8AM to 5:30PM on weekends and offers consultation and referral services at no charge to help families find the right fit. The place feels like a retreat, with hospitality and a focus on making people feel at home, and it favors those who want a smaller, close-knit place to live with plenty of care but not so much hustle and bustle.
