Friendship Manor offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care, allowing residents to move between levels of support without relocating. The community is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs, including day- and night-time wandering, elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, and residents who stay up all night. Nurses monitor wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes—whether residents use oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Advanced dementia conditions are supported, and the team also admits younger adults who need long-term assistance.
Care delivery is reinforced by licensed nurses on staff, an on-call nurse available around the clock, and awake overnight staffing. Background checks are completed on all employees, while door alarms, WanderGuard systems, and personal emergency response devices that dial 911 help maintain security. Podiatry visits, a therapy room, and acceptance of psychiatric diagnoses extend on-site clinical resources. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility needs are met with standby help, one- or two-person transfers, Hoyer lifts, and care for residents who are bed-bound.
Apartments vary in layout and may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate control, and the option to paint or decorate the space. Cable service, in-unit laundry machines, scheduled laundry pickup, and regular housekeeping are available, though not every unit offers every feature. Independent Living residents receive weekly housekeeping and can opt into a monthly meal plan while still maintaining the freedom to structure their own day.
Meals are served from a set menu or prepared to order, and snacks are stocked throughout the day. Residents may dine in the restaurant-style dining room, request in-room service, or reserve a private dining room for guests. The culinary team manages mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid diets and works with clinical staff to accommodate other physician-ordered modifications.
The campus includes resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a beauty and barber shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, and internet access throughout. Outdoor communal gardens, an on-site chapel for religious services, a library, and interest clubs provide additional ways to stay engaged, while a concierge helps coordinate transportation to appointments and outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
