Heartis Venice is licensed to provide assisted-living care, which includes 24-hour oversight by trained caregivers and on-site nurses who monitor residents’ vital signs, coordinate physician visits and manage medications. The care team follows individualized service plans that outline each resident’s health conditions, prescribed therapies and daily support needs. In addition to routine wellness checks, staff can arrange laboratory work, imaging and other off-site medical services when ordered by a physician. Emergency response pull cords and wearable pendants connect directly to caregivers who are on duty around the clock, helping to reduce response times during urgent situations.
Beyond the clinical components, the community supplies practical assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, mobility and continence care according to each resident’s abilities. Caregivers cue or escort residents to meals and activities, and they schedule transportation to local medical appointments to help maintain continuity of care. A licensed nurse leads wellness programming that includes blood-pressure clinics, fall-prevention exercises and chronic-disease education. Physical, occupational and speech therapy providers visit the community on referral, allowing residents to receive rehabilitation services without leaving the property.
Apartments are offered in multiple floor plans, ranging from studios to two-bedroom layouts, and most feature step-in showers, kitchenettes, individual climate controls and emergency call systems; however, not every unit includes all of these features, so it is best to verify specifics during a tour. Weekly housekeeping, linen service and maintenance are included, and laundry facilities are available for personal use. Residents may furnish their spaces to their preferences, and small pets are welcome in designated apartments. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Meals are served restaurant-style in the central dining room three times a day, with menu options that accommodate diabetic, low-sodium and other physician-ordered diets. A chef and dietary manager oversee portion control and nutritional balance, and snacks and beverages are available between meals in a common bistro area. The kitchen staff consults with residents about meal preferences, and room service can be arranged during illness or recovery. Families are encouraged to join loved ones for special holiday or birthday meals by reservation.
