Bellerose Senior Living operates as both an assisted-living community and a licensed residential care home, giving families two levels of oversight under one roof. Residents who wander—day or night—receive continuous monitoring, and elopement protocols are in place for those at risk of leaving the grounds. Staff manage complex needs such as wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes—whether controlled by oral medication or insulin injections. The team also supports residents under age sixty and those living with advanced dementia. On-site podiatry visits limit outside appointments, and the community is open to residents who have co-existing psychiatric diagnoses, ensuring continuity of care without relocation.

Round-the-clock safety measures include a 24-hour nurse on call, awake night staff, and full-time security personnel. The building is fenced front and back, doors are alarmed, and residents have pull cords and personal emergency response systems that alert staff immediately. Background-checked caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from simple standby assistance to two-person or mechanical Hoyer lifts, so even bed-bound residents can remain on site. These layers of staffing and equipment mean that residents may remain at Bellerose as their mobility and care requirements change over time.

Private and companion rooms can be furnished by the community, or families may bring personal pieces and even repaint or decorate to make the space feel familiar; availability of these options varies by unit. Weekly housekeeping is standard, and laundry is included for assisted-living residents. Independent-living tenants may opt into housekeeping, laundry service, medication-management monitoring, and a monthly meal plan to simplify day-to-day tasks while retaining autonomy.

Meals are prepared in a commercial kitchen and served from a set menu, though on-order dishes can be requested at each sitting. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and in-room dining is offered when residents are recovering or prefer privacy. Therapeutic diets—such as pureed meals, thickened liquids, low-sodium, diabetic, vegetarian, or other physician-ordered modifications—are accommodated. Not every accommodation includes a kitchenette, so residents interested in in-room meal preparation should confirm availability during a tour.

Residents may smoke outdoors in designated areas, bring small pets, and enjoy barrier-free access throughout the wheelchair-friendly building. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Bellerose features an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise room, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and regularly scheduled religious services. Scheduled transportation, along with proximity to public transit, helps residents reach medical appointments, shopping, and local events without difficulty.
