We are licensed for 10 residents. Our license includes residents at the supervisory, personal, and directed levels of care.
No. All of our suites are private. The exception would be if a resident and a spouse that does not require any assistance choose to share the same room. In that case the non-care spouse would be on a separate contract for room and board only and would not count as one of our 10 residents but would be welcome to participate in any of the daily activities.
Absolutely. All of our hallways are five feet wide. Interior and exterior doors are a minimum of 36 inches. There are no resident areas with stairs or lips of any kind including our showers. Resident vanities are open underneath for wheelchair accessibility and the toilets are higher than normal making them easier to get on and off of.

Yes. There will be at least two activities schedules each day. One of these will involve some sort of exercise for the body and the other will focus on exercise for the mind.

Guests are welcome to have a meal with the resident, however, we ask that you give us 24 hour notice so that we may be prepared with enough food for the meal. There is no charge for the meal but we respectfully ask that you respect this favor by reasonably limiting such requests. For those wishing to eat here very often, please work out a meal plan with the manager.
