Excelcare at Newark

Excelcare at Newark sits at 4949 Ogletown Stanton Road in Newark, Delaware, and the place really focuses on helping older adults in different stages of life, so you've got people there who want to enjoy independent living without the stress of a big home, people who might need some help getting dressed or remembering their medicine, and then there are folks who need skilled nursing or rehab after a hospital stay, so they've got staff and care programs that adapt to all that, and you'll find registered nurses around all day and night for people who need serious medical care, so it's not just help with a shower or laundry, though they do have housekeeping and meals and special dietary options too, but more advanced things like medication management, physical rehab, and even, for folks who need it, memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia with special features to help folks feel safe and less confused. They run social activities and daily programs, so you could find yourself gardening or attending movie nights, and there are going to be fitness rooms, business centers, and areas for art and music, and even libraries and game rooms, so a person can stay engaged if they want to. The units come with private bathrooms, air conditioning, kitchenettes, and you can get internet and cable TV, and if you'd rather have a furnished room, they have those too. Residents can get rides, laundry service, help moving in, and concierge service for everyday needs, and taken together it's a community where there's support for short or long stays, rehab, skilled nursing, and even hospice care, because they're set up for medical needs of all types, including diagnostic imaging and therapy, and there's a hospital accreditation status which means they meet safety standards, and they get oversight from Excelcare Health Management. The staff has a reputation for treating folks like family, always putting care first and focusing on each person's needs and routines, and after a $1.2 million renovation, things are modern and pleasant, but still feel warm and welcoming, and in the end, it's a place where someone can have help when needed but also live life at their own pace.
