Tara Hills Care Home operates as a Residential Care Home with a full spectrum of on-site medical services that include Assisted Living, Incontinence Care, Ambulatory Care, and Hospice Care. Clinical support covers residents who use oxygen, follow physician-ordered special diets, manage diabetes with oral medication or insulin injections, and those living with advanced dementia conditions. Direct care staff provide complete help with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and the team is trained to handle every transfer level—from simple walker assistance to two-person lifts, full Hoyer transfers, and care for bed-bound residents.
Safety and supervision are built into the daily routine. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night-shift staff monitors residents around the clock. Door alarms, fenced front and rear areas, and controlled entries reduce wandering risks. An Activity Director coordinates structured programs to maintain engagement and cognitive function, while the secured environment supports residents who need heightened observation.
Private and semi-private rooms come furnished, and many can be personalized with paint or décor; cable service is available in select units, although not every accommodation includes every listed feature. Independent Living residents on campus can arrange optional housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan, giving them flexibility without sacrificing support.
Meals follow a set menu designed to meet everyday nutritional guidelines, with snacks available throughout the day and diet modifications offered for medical or personal preferences. The kitchen team collaborates with clinical staff to adjust carbohydrate counts, sodium levels, or texture to match each care plan, ensuring residents with diabetes or other dietary needs receive proper nourishment.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, internet connectivity, and communal gardens. Outdoor smoking is permitted in designated areas, and pets are welcome; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit make off-site appointments and outings straightforward.
