The Residence of Stuart provides Assisted Living, Residential Care Home, and Memory Care programs in one setting, allowing residents to move between care levels without relocating. The clinical team admits and supports individuals who wander in the morning or evening, have a history of elopement, display combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake throughout the night, require wound management, need oxygen therapy, follow physician-ordered special diets, manage diabetes with oral medication or injections, or are under 60 years old. Care plans can be adjusted for residents living with early, mid-stage, or advanced dementia, and the staff is trained to handle changing cognitive and physical needs.
Day-to-day oversight is provided by an RN or LPN on site, with a nurse on call 24 hours. All employees pass background checks, an awake night shift is maintained, and the building has 24-hour staffed security, fenced outdoor areas, alarmed doors, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems. Podiatry visits are conducted on site. Staff can supply full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and are trained in walker and wheelchair support, standby supervision, and one-person transfers, enabling residents to remain in place as mobility declines.
Private and shared suites are offered; some include cable service, while others do not, so prospective residents should confirm availability during a tour. Rooms are arranged to allow easy wheelchair maneuvering and may be furnished or unfurnished based on resident preference. Common areas are designed for visibility and short walking distances to reduce confusion for memory care residents. Not every accommodation contains the same features, so families should verify specific layouts and pricing.
The culinary staff prepares made-to-order meals three times a day and keeps snacks available at all hours. Special therapeutic diets, including diabetic, low-sodium, and pureed options, are prepared under nursing oversight. Residents in Independent Living who request medication management can receive monitoring and reminders without stepping up to a higher level of care, and this service can be added or removed as health needs change.
Amenities include on-site resident parking, wheelchair-accessible walkways, an outdoor smoking area, internet access throughout the building, and a swimming pool designed with gradual-entry access. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, shopping, and local events. Small pets are welcome; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
