College Town Senior Retirement Villa Inc operates as a residential care home and is prepared to manage a wide range of medical needs. Staff members are trained to monitor residents who wander during the day or night, address behavioral challenges, assist individuals who stay up all night, and care for residents with complex conditions such as advanced dementia. The community handles wound care, oxygen therapy, special dietary restrictions, and diabetes management for both oral medications and insulin injections. Residents under 60 years old can also be accommodated when clinically appropriate, and on-site podiatry services reduce the need for outside appointments. The community accepts residents with psychiatric histories, provided their needs can be safely met.
Around-the-clock support is in place, starting with a 24-hour nurse on call and staff on site at all times. Background checks are required for all employees, night staff remain on duty—though asleep—and the property has door alarms, a fenced rear area, and pull cords in rooms that alert caregivers. Assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting is available at the full-help level. Mobility services range from standby supervision to one- or two-person transfers, wheelchair help, full Hoyer lift transfers, and care for bed-bound residents, ensuring continuity as mobility changes.
Accommodation options include furnished rooms, some with private bathrooms, cable service, and the ability for residents to repaint or decorate if they choose; not every room has every feature, so availability should be confirmed during a tour. Rooms are arranged to simplify mobility devices and provide quick access to call systems, while housekeeping and laundry are handled by staff.
Dining follows a set menu aimed at meeting nutritional guidelines, with modifications for physician-ordered special diets, diabetic needs, and texture adjustments. Snacks are available between meals to help manage blood sugar levels or simply provide added calories when needed. Staff remain on hand in the dining area to assist residents who require full help with eating.
Residents have access to outdoor smoking areas, internet connectivity, communal gardens, scheduled on-site religious services, and transportation for medical appointments or personal errands. Pets are allowed, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
