Academy Point at Mystic provides Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care, ensuring residents receive the level of oversight that matches their needs. The community is equipped to manage wandering behaviors day or night, elopement risks, behavioral issues, and advanced dementia conditions. Nursing staff handle wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetics—whether on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale protocols. The team also accepts residents under 60 who need support.
Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, with a nurse on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, night shifts are awake, and 24-hour security personnel are on site. Apartments are fitted with pull cords, and residents can opt for personal emergency response systems that alert staff. Podiatry services are available on campus, and the community accepts psychiatric diagnoses. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained to work with walkers, wheelchairs, stand-by transfers, one- or two-person assists, and full Hoyer-lift transfers.
Residences range from studios to larger layouts; some include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, and cable hookups, while others may have only a subset of these features. Residents can personalize their spaces with paint or décor, subject to community guidelines. Dining offers made-to-order meals, all-day snacks, and diet modifications managed by nursing and dining services. Independent Living residents can take advantage of medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and laundry.
Daily life is supported by resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and a welcoming pet policy; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. A barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie theater, wellness center, internet access, and communal gardens give residents multiple options for engagement. On-site religious services are offered, and transportation is provided for appointments and outings, with the added convenience of nearby public transit.
