Fairwinds – Desert Point offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to choose a level of support that matches their current needs while remaining in the same community should requirements change over time. Assisted Living residents receive help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and medication management, and licensed nurses are available to coordinate care plans with physicians. Regular wellness assessments help staff track changes in health status, and an emergency response system in each apartment connects residents quickly to on-site caregivers 24 hours a day. Independent Living residents retain the freedom to manage their own schedules while knowing that clinical staff and emergency support are close at hand when needed.
Beyond routine medical oversight, the community arranges scheduled transportation to local physicians, specialists, and rehabilitation clinics, easing access to off-site medical appointments. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy services can be coordinated on site through third-party providers, and visiting home-health agencies are welcomed for residents who require skilled nursing or post-hospital recovery. A daily check-in program allows staff to confirm each resident’s well-being, and fitness and balance classes are offered to help reduce fall risk and promote overall health. The goal is to maintain residents’ independence for as long as possible while keeping a safety net of professional support in place.
Apartments range from studios to two-bedroom layouts and feature basic kitchenettes, accessible bathrooms, individual climate controls, and emergency call systems, though not every unit includes every feature such as full kitchens, walk-in closets, or private patios. Housekeeping and maintenance are provided, and cable and Wi-Fi are available. The community is pet friendly, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Meals are served restaurant-style in a central dining room with menus that rotate daily and accommodate common dietary needs such as low-sodium, diabetic, and heart-healthy selections; however, not all specialized diets can be met, so residents should confirm specific requirements in advance. Lighter fare and snacks are available throughout the day, and there is a private dining area that can be reserved for family gatherings. For residents who prefer to cook, some units include kitchenettes, but this varies by floor plan.
