Scenic Hills Care Center in Ferdinand, Indiana, operates as an assisted-living community where daily support is matched with appropriate medical oversight. Residents who need short-term relief can take advantage of respite care, and on-site physical therapy is available for those recovering from surgery, injury, or managing chronic conditions. Licensed nurses coordinate these services with attending physicians, while trained caregivers handle routine assistance with mobility, bathing, and medication reminders.
Beyond direct medical attention, the staff develops individualized service plans that are reviewed regularly to keep pace with changing needs. A 24-hour call system links residents to caregivers at any time, and scheduled wellness checks add another layer of oversight. Transportation to outside medical appointments is arranged as needed, and families receive regular updates about progress and care adjustments.
Living arrangements at Scenic Hills range from private to companion suites. Some residences offer direct access to landscaped outdoor areas or overlook the community’s garden, while others are closer to the library and computer lounge. All layouts include basic safety features and housekeeping services, although not every unit contains every accommodation mentioned. Residents can choose to participate in clubs and community groups that meet in common areas designed for small gatherings.
Meals are provided three times a day in a central dining room, with menu options that accommodate common dietary requirements. Snacks are available between meals, and staff can assist anyone who needs help with seating or utensil use. Nutrition staff confer with healthcare providers to align menus with residents’ medical guidelines and personal preferences.
An activity center serves as the hub for planned events, including arts and crafts sessions and organized social outings to local points of interest. These programs are scheduled to encourage regular participation and social engagement, and transportation for off-site events is arranged by the community.
