Presence Villa Scalabrini N&R provides Independent Living with a clinical safety net that is unusually broad for this level of care. Residents who wander—day or night—are monitored, and protocols are in place for elopement prevention. The community is prepared to manage wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, and diabetes whether controlled by oral medication or insulin injections. Moderate dementia is supported, and the campus offers a full continuum of nursing and therapeutic disciplines, ensuring that changes in a resident’s health can be addressed without an automatic move to a higher-acuity setting.
Round-the-clock nursing coverage includes both RNs and LPNs, and an Activity Director coordinates programs that align with individual care plans. On-site services range from stroke recovery, cardiac monitoring, wound care, pain management, and dialysis coordination to memory care, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and resident or family counseling. Staff can supply full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they accommodate every transfer level—from standby support and walker aid to wheelchair, Hoyer lift, and bed-bound transfers—so residents can remain on campus even as mobility needs change.
Apartments may feature independent climate controls, cable service, and routine housekeeping, though availability of these features varies by unit type. Independent Living residents also receive scheduled housekeeping and laundry service, easing day-to-day responsibilities while preserving personal privacy and independence.
The dining program supplies three daily meals with options that cover low-sodium, kosher, vegetarian, gluten-free, and other allergen-sensitive menus. Healthy snacks are available between meals, and the culinary team collaborates with nursing staff to honor physician-ordered special diets, including diabetic meal plans. Independent Living residents can select meal packages that suit their routines, choosing how many meals they take in the dining room versus preparing simple fare in their own kitchens.
Residents have access to on-site parking, a full-service barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, internet connectivity, scheduled religious services, and community-arranged transportation for medical appointments, shopping, and local outings. These amenities complement the clinical infrastructure, allowing residents to maintain an active schedule without leaving the security of the campus.
