Mary Immaculate Care Facility in Talkeetna, AK operates as an assisted-living community with an emphasis on consistent medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on site around the clock to handle medication management, routine health checks, and coordination with residents’ physicians. The staff is trained to recognize changes in health status quickly, and an on-call medical provider can be contacted for urgent issues. Vital-sign monitoring, diabetes management, and help with oxygen or other physician-ordered therapies are available for residents who need them.

Beyond direct medical services, the facility offers practical assistance with everyday activities such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility. Care plans are individualized and reviewed regularly to ensure that support levels match each resident’s current needs. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions can be scheduled through outside providers who visit the campus, and transportation is arranged for off-site medical appointments. A secured entry system, emergency call pendants, and safety checks throughout the day reinforce resident security.

Accommodations include a mix of private and shared suites, each designed with wheelchair-accessible bathrooms, grab bars, and an emergency call system. Some units add features like in-room climate controls, kitchenettes, or scenic views, but not all accommodations have all the features. Weekly housekeeping and linen service are provided, and basic cable and internet access are available in most rooms. Maintenance is handled by on-site personnel to keep living areas safe and functional.

Residents receive three meals a day prepared in an on-site kitchen overseen by a dietary manager. Menus are developed to meet standard nutrition guidelines, and therapeutic diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical-soft can be accommodated on physician order. Meals are served in a communal dining room with table service, though tray delivery to a resident’s room is offered when illness or mobility limitations make that necessary. Snacks, coffee, and juice are available throughout the day, and family members are welcome to join residents for meals with advance notice.
