Rising Star Personal Care Home operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage a wide range of health needs. Team members are trained to support residents who wander during the day or night, have elopement risks, present behavioral challenges, stay awake through the night, or require wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, diabetes management (oral medications or injections), and care for residents under 60 years old. The community also accepts those living with advanced dementia, providing structure and interventions aimed at safety and orientation.
Clinical oversight and daily support are reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, an on-call nurse available around the clock, and an awake overnight team. Background-checked staff maintain 24-hour coverage, aided by door alarms, fenced outdoor areas, wander-guard systems, and room pull cords that alert caregivers. On-site podiatry services are available, and residents with psychiatric diagnoses can be accommodated. Personal care includes full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, with transfer support ranging from standby help to one- or two-person transfers for walkers and wheelchairs.
Resident rooms may offer a private bathroom, basic furnishings, individual climate controls, cable access, and the option to paint or decorate the space; not every room includes each feature, so availability should be confirmed during a tour. Independent living residents can opt for medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan, allowing them to retain autonomy while still receiving practical support.
Meals follow a set menu with modifications for diabetic, low-sodium, and other physician-ordered diets. Between meals, snacks are kept on hand to accommodate varying appetites and glucose-monitoring schedules. Dining staff coordinate closely with nursing to ensure nutritional needs are met and that texture-modified or calorie-controlled plans are delivered accurately.
The property offers resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. A designated outdoor area is available for smoking. Pets are permitted; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments, shopping, and local events, supporting continued engagement outside the community.
