Winnifred Assisted Living Facility in Palm Bay is designed for residents who need the structure and daily support of assisted living while managing complex medical profiles. The community is equipped to care for individuals who wander at any time of day, exhibit elopement risks, display combative or other behavioral issues, or remain awake through the night. Clinical oversight extends to residents on oxygen, those requiring specialized diets, and diabetics who use either oral medications or insulin injections. Staff members are also trained to support residents living with advanced dementia, ensuring consistent attention to cognitive and physical safety.
To keep care reliable, an RN or LPN is on site and a nurse is on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night-shift team monitors residents continuously. Medical services include on-site podiatry, and the facility accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Direct assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, with transfer help ranging from standby or walker support to one-person and two-person lifts. A fenced rear area adds an extra layer of security for residents who may wander, and an activity director develops structured programming that meets individual abilities and interests.
Resident rooms vary in layout and features. Some offer private bathrooms, existing furnishings, cable service, and the option for residents to paint or otherwise personalize their space, while others may include only a subset of these features. Families should confirm specific room amenities during the selection process to match individual preferences and requirements.
Dining is handled on site with both set menus and made-to-order selections available at each meal. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and dietary modifications are managed for conditions such as diabetes, low-sodium needs, or other physician-ordered plans, integrating closely with the nursing team to maintain medical consistency.
Beyond direct care, Winnifred provides resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, a dedicated movie room, community-wide internet access, and landscaped gardens for outdoor relaxation. Regular on-site religious services are offered, and scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments and community outings.
