The facility is family-owned and part of Vierra Communities, and people recognize it as a Best of Senior Living community for its high-quality care and helpful, friendly staff. The place serves 108 residents, offering 36 private rooms and both studio and semi-private options. Carriage Hill supports people who need long-term nursing care, short-term rehab for things like strokes or surgeries, memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, and end-of-life support through hospice and palliative care, plus it accepts Medicaid for those who qualify.
The team at Carriage Hill includes nurses available 24/7, physical, occupational, and speech therapists working seven days a week, along with aides and other caregivers trained to support daily needs, independence, and well-being. There's a big focus on personalized care plans, clinical excellence, and innovation, with programs for cardiac rehab, pulmonary rehab, renal care, wound care, and infectious disease management. They also offer respite stays for families who need a break and home care services for seniors living at home who need some help and companionship but not medical care.
You'll see a set of specially designed amenities here, like the 'Walk to Dine' luxury dining program with meals planned by a registered dietitian to keep nutrition and taste in balance, free WiFi, and common spaces that are modern yet still have a home-like charm, including beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces.
