Respit Manor operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs. The staff can monitor residents who wander during the day or night, address elopement risk, and respond to combative or other behavioral issues. Caregivers remain available for individuals who stay awake throughout the night and can deliver wound care, oxygen management, and specialized diets. Diabetes management is offered for residents on oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale regimens, and the team is experienced in supporting advanced dementia conditions.
Additional clinical support includes an RN or LPN on staff and a licensed nurse on call 24 hours a day. All employees complete background checks, and an awake night shift oversees security features such as a fenced rear area and alarmed doors. On-site podiatry visits help limit outside appointments, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Full assistance is available with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walkers to two-person transfers and Hoyer lift services for bed-bound residents.
Private and shared rooms come furnished, and many allow residents to paint or decorate to their own taste; cable service is available in select units. Because layouts and features vary, not every accommodation includes every option.
Meals follow a set menu with the flexibility to order alternatives at each sitting. Between meals, snacks are stocked and accessible. The kitchen can modify textures, portion sizes, and ingredients to meet physician-ordered or preference-based dietary plans, including low-sodium, diabetic, or other specialized diets.
Amenities include outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, an on-site barber and beauty shop, internet access, and communal gardens. Scheduled transportation is available for appointments and errands, and the property is close to public transit for family visits and resident outings.
