About Fair Haven - Specialty Care

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Fair Haven – Specialty Care provides assisted living services designed for residents who need daily support while retaining as much independence as possible. The community can accommodate short-term respite stays, helping families who need temporary relief or time to plan long-term arrangements. On-site physical therapy enables residents to continue rehabilitation without leaving the property, and diabetes care is coordinated through routine monitoring, medication management, and dietary oversight. A speech therapist is available for residents working to maintain or regain communication and swallowing abilities.

Care is delivered inside a secured community, adding an extra layer of protection for residents who may be at risk of wandering or disorientation. Staffing is organized to ensure help is available around the clock for activities of daily living, medication administration, and emergency response. The secure layout also allows clinicians and caregivers to focus on consistent observation and prompt intervention when health needs change.

Resident accommodations range from studio and efficiency layouts to suites with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and independent temperature controls. Many units are furnished, although residents who prefer to bring personal items or paint and decorate their rooms may do so. Cable service, parking, outdoor areas, and access to a library and computer lounge are available, and select rooms are pet friendly, though not every accommodation includes every feature on this list.

Meals are prepared by the culinary staff and served three times a day, with a combination of set menus and on-order options. Snacks are available between meals, and the kitchen can provide diet modifications for medical or personal reasons, including vegetarian and kosher meals. Nutrition planning aligns with individual care plans, supporting diabetes management and other health concerns.

Residents have access to an activity center that hosts programs designed to encourage social interaction, cognitive engagement, and light exercise. Outdoor areas are open for use when weather permits, giving residents space for walking, gardening, or simply spending time outside.
