Lighthouse Assisted Living – Newland operates as a residential care home equipped to manage an extensive range of medical needs. The team is experienced with residents who wander at any time of day, are at risk for elopement, or display combative or other challenging behaviors, including those linked to advanced dementia. Staff can care for individuals who stay up all night, require wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, or are younger than 60. Diabetes oversight is provided for both residents on oral medications and those needing insulin injections, ensuring daily monitoring and prompt adjustments when necessary.

Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, with a nurse on call 24 hours a day for any urgent changes in condition. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift maintains supervision alongside door alarms, a fenced rear area, and pull-cord alert systems. An activity director coordinates therapeutic programming while on-site podiatry visits handle foot care; the community also accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Caregivers deliver full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and are trained in every level of transfer support—from standby help with a walker to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers.

Private and semiprivate rooms come furnished, and families may repaint or add personal décor to make the space feel familiar. Cable service is available in many rooms, though not every accommodation offers every feature, so it is best to confirm specific room details during a tour.

Meals follow a set menu prepared in-house, with dietitian-guided modifications for diabetic, renal, or other physician-ordered diets. Between meals, snacks are always on hand, and staff monitor intake for residents who need encouragement or a specialized eating plan.

Residents have access to outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible pathways, a barber and beauty shop, internet connectivity, communal gardens, roll-in showers, and scheduled transportation for medical appointments or errands. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
