Sage House – Crocus operates as a residential care home and is equipped to serve residents with a wide range of medical needs. The team manages residents who wander at any time of day, present with elopement risks, demonstrate combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake through the night, or require wound care and oxygen therapy. Special dietary oversight is available for individuals on oral diabetic medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale coverage, and the staff can support adults under the age of 60 who need care. The community is also prepared to manage residents living with advanced dementia conditions.
Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, and a nurse is on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift ensures consistent observation. Safety measures include door alarms, a fenced rear area, 24-hour on-site staffing, and a PERS system that immediately alerts caregivers. The home accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses and can deliver full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer capabilities range from standby aid to two-person, Hoyer lift, and bed-bound transfers, accommodating walkers and wheelchairs without difficulty.
Private rooms with en-suite bathrooms are available, and some come furnished, feature independent temperature controls, and offer cable service. Residents may paint or decorate their rooms, and housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided. Not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so families should confirm specific room details during a visit.
Meals follow either a set menu or an on-order format, with snacks accessible throughout the day. In-room dining is possible, and the kitchen can manage gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid diets. Staff monitor intake closely and coordinate with physicians for any prescribed nutritional modifications.
Additional amenities include resident parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible grounds, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, and scheduled transportation for appointments or errands. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
