Channing House offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, with medical oversight designed to meet a wide range of resident needs. Nurses manage care plans that include support for residents who wander, wound care services, oxygen therapy, special-diet monitoring, and comprehensive diabetic management—covering oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale regimens. The community is equipped to serve individuals living with moderate dementia, coordinating treatment adjustments as conditions evolve and ensuring continuity of care without the need for outside relocation.
On-site clinical coverage consists of registered and licensed practical nurses around the clock, supplemented by an awake night shift and an activity director who integrates therapeutic programs into daily schedules. All staff members undergo background checks, and the building maintains 24-hour security with door alarms, wander-guard technology, pull cords, and PERS pendants. Personal-care services extend to full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby support for walkers to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents, ensuring safe mobility for varying strength and balance levels.
Accommodations include studios and one-bedroom suites that may feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individualized temperature controls, and the option to paint or decorate. Cable, housekeeping, and scheduled laundry are available, though not every unit offers every amenity; prospective residents should confirm which features are included in the specific apartment style they choose.
Dining services emphasize choice and clinical oversight. Meals can be ordered individually, and a private dining room is available for family visits or special occasions. Dietitians can accommodate gluten-free menus, vegetarian selections, mechanical-chop or puréed textures, and thickened liquids. Independent-living residents may opt for medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, laundry services, and a monthly meal plan that provides flexibility while supporting wellness.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and a library. A heated pool, hobby spaces, and special-interest clubs add to daily engagement options. Scheduled transportation connects residents to medical appointments and shopping, and the campus is close to public transit for those who prefer to travel independently.
