Whittier Place offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to remain in the same community even as needs change. The staff is trained to manage wandering behaviors during both daytime and nighttime, address elopement risks, supervise residents who are up all night, and care for individuals with advanced dementia. Medical oversight extends to wound care, oxygen therapy, special-diet management, younger adults under 60, and residents who control diabetes with oral medications.

Daily support is backed by an on-site RN/LPN, an awake night shift, and round-the-clock security. Background-checked caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and can handle transfers ranging from simple walker help to two-person and bed-bound moves. Rooms are protected with door alarms, pull-cords, and optional personal emergency response systems, while a fenced rear area adds another layer of safety. A visiting podiatrist is available on site, and an activity director structures programs to match each resident’s abilities.

Accommodation choices vary; some units include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and even the option to paint or decorate the space. Not every room has every feature, so it is best to confirm specific layouts and amenities during a tour.

Meals are prepared to order, with snacks accessible around the clock. The kitchen team can handle physician-ordered diets, texture modifications, and individual preferences, ensuring residents with diabetes, special diets, or other medical requirements receive appropriate nutrition.

Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-friendly common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and religious services without leaving the property. Scheduled transportation is provided, and the community is close to public transit options. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
