Mill Pond Health Campus in Greencastle offers both Assisted Living and dedicated Memory Care, allowing residents to remain in the same community even as needs change. Care teams are trained to navigate wandering, elopement risk, combative behaviors, nighttime wakefulness, and other behavioral challenges common to dementia, including advanced stages. Nurses monitor and manage wound care, oxygen use, special diets, and glucose control for residents on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Adults under 60 who require these supports are also accepted, making the campus a fit for a broad age range.
The medical program is reinforced by an RN or LPN on every shift, a 24-hour nurse on site, and an awake night staff. Background-checked employees answer pull-cord alerts, and the building uses door alarms, Wander Guard technology, and a fenced rear area for added safety. Residents have on-site access to podiatry, audiology, a therapy room, and psychiatric services. Daily living help covers full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while most residents eat independently. Transfers can be performed with a walker, wheelchair, standby support, or a one-person lift as needed. An activity director coordinates therapeutic and social programs seven days a week.
Apartments come furnished or unfurnished and may offer a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, cable hookup, and the option to paint or decorate; not every unit includes every feature, so touring is recommended to confirm specifics. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, letting residents focus on recovery and social engagement rather than chores.
Meals are prepared by a culinary staff that offers both a set menu and an on-order alternative at each sitting. Snacks are available throughout the day, and residents may choose in-room dining or reserve a private dining room for family visits. Dietary modifications are routine, including gluten-free plates, vegetarian choices, mechanical-chop and purée textures, and thickened liquids when clinically indicated.
Campus amenities include resident parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and wellness rooms, movie screening space, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, a concierge desk, a library, special-interest clubs, scheduled transportation, and proximity to public transit. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be accepted.
