Cedarhurst of Breese offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to stay in the same community even as their needs change. The clinical team can also accommodate respite or short-term stays, an option that is useful after a hospital discharge or when a family caregiver needs relief. For residents managing diabetes, staff members provide oversight and support as part of each care plan, helping keep blood sugar levels within physician-recommended ranges.
The community is secured, which is particularly important for individuals with cognitive decline who may be prone to wandering. On-site medical capabilities include incontinence and ambulatory care, medication management, and regular nurse oversight to adjust care plans as needed. Visiting specialists such as a podiatrist help reduce the need for outside appointments, and hospice services are available if a resident’s condition progresses. These layers of support allow many residents to age in place without repeated moves.
Living spaces range from studio to larger apartment layouts, and not every unit offers every feature. Depending on the floor plan selected, residents may have a kitchenette, private balcony or patio, wheelchair-accessible shower, or a view of the central fireplace. Basic utilities include air conditioning, cable or satellite TV, and Wi-Fi. Outdoor areas, a deck, and pet-friendly policies encourage residents to spend time outside when weather permits, while ample parking is available for those who still drive.
Dining is structured around an all-day service model, so residents can choose meal times that fit their routines. A professional chef oversees menu planning and preparation, offering restaurant-style service with multiple entrée choices at each seating. Specialized diets such as organic, gluten-free, no-sugar-added, or low-sodium are accommodated without requiring residents to make special requests, and family members can join for guest meals.
Residents have access to indoor and outdoor walking paths, an activity center, a library and computer lounge, live music events, happy hours, birthday parties, and community dances. Clubs, yoga and chair-yoga sessions, reminiscence programs, and regular social outings provide additional structure to the weekly calendar. Outdoor space is open to residents who enjoy fresh air or gardening, and the overall program mix is designed to promote social engagement without sacrificing personal choice.
