Tendercare – Pinehurst operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage residents with a range of medical needs. The community supports individuals who wander during the day or night, display combative or challenging behaviors, stay awake overnight, live with moderate dementia, or require wound care and oxygen therapy. Diabetic residents, whether on oral medications or injections, are accommodated, and the home also accepts adults under 60 who need this level of care. On-site medical oversight extends to residents with psychiatric conditions, allowing continuity of treatment without leaving the property.

Round-the-clock clinical coverage includes an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All team members complete background checks, and an awake night shift supplements 24-hour staffing and security. A fenced rear area and a personal emergency response system help reduce elopement risk and accelerate staff response. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, and toileting, while residents who need help eating receive some physical assistance. Transfer options range from standby support to one-person assists, and equipment such as walkers and wheelchairs is accommodated.

Private and semi-private rooms are offered, and some come fully furnished with cable service, personal bathrooms, and the option to paint or decorate. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation includes all these features, so prospective residents should verify availability during a tour.

Meals follow a set menu prepared on site, with snacks available throughout the day. The kitchen can modify textures, portions, or ingredients to meet medical or cultural dietary requirements, ensuring residents who need specialized nutrition plans receive appropriate meals.

Residents have access to on-site parking, outside smoking areas, and fully wheelchair-accessible common spaces. A barber and beauty shop, internet service, and communal gardens provide additional convenience and social outlets. Scheduled transportation is available, and the community is close to public transit for appointments or outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
