Stonegate Guest Home is a residential care home that concentrates on medical needs typical of both older adults and younger residents who require support. The team is prepared to manage residents who wander during the day or night, provides wound care and oxygen oversight, accommodates special diets, and monitors diabetics on oral medication. Caregivers are also trained to work with residents who have advanced dementia, and on-site podiatry visits are available to reduce the need for outside appointments.
Staffing and safety measures are in place around the clock. A nurse is on call 24 hours a day, background-checked caregivers cover both awake and asleep night shifts, and the building is secured with alarms, fenced outdoor areas, and pull-cord alerts in resident rooms. Hands-on help is offered for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the team can handle a full range of transfers, from walker and wheelchair assistance to two-person or bed-bound moves.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and most come furnished, though residents can bring their own items and may repaint or decorate with approval. Cable service is offered in many rooms; availability can vary, so it is best to confirm specific features during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu designed to meet typical senior nutrition guidelines, with snacks available between scheduled dining times. The kitchen staff can make diet modifications to accommodate physician-ordered restrictions, diabetic needs, and other special dietary requirements.
Residents may smoke in designated outdoor areas, enjoy wheelchair-accessible communal gardens, attend on-site religious services, and take advantage of scheduled transportation as well as proximity to public transit. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
