Golden Sands Retirement Home operates as a residential care home able to support residents with a wide range of medical needs. The team is equipped to manage wandering behaviors at any time of day, elopement risks, combative or other behavioral issues, and residents who are awake throughout the night. Clinical staff handle wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes management whether a resident is on oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. The community is also prepared for individuals under 60 years old and those living with moderate dementia.
Care delivery is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on call 24 hours a day, and awake night-shift caregivers. All employees undergo background checks, while 24-hour security, alarmed doors, and both front and rear fencing help maintain resident safety. On-site podiatry services are available, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Direct care includes full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from supervision with a walker to one-person and two-person transfers, including wheelchair assistance.
Private and semi-private rooms are offered, many with their own bathrooms, independent temperature controls, and cable service; prospective residents should note that not every room includes each of these features. Furnishings are provided, yet residents can bring personal items and may paint or decorate their space to make it their own.
Meals follow a set menu with daily options to order special dishes, and snacks are available around the clock. The kitchen handles diet modifications for diabetes, low-sodium needs, and other physician-directed plans to align with each resident’s care plan.
Amenities and services include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Medical practitioners such as a geriatric internist and optometrist visit regularly. Housekeeping, laundry, a monthly meal plan, medication management, scheduled transportation, and proximity to public transit support day-to-day convenience for residents and their families.
