Good Samaritan Society Northwood Retirement Community offers Assisted Living care designed for older adults who want daily support while maintaining as much independence as possible. Short-term respite stays are also available, giving caregivers a break and allowing guests to experience the community’s services without a long-term commitment.
Residents have 24-hour access to assistance through an emergency call system that connects them quickly with on-site staff. Trained team members monitor alerts, provide help with everyday tasks, and arrange medical care as needed, aiming to keep response times prompt and coordination straightforward.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and not every unit includes every feature, but options can include independent temperature controls, cable or cable TV service, Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, window treatments, and central air conditioning. Housekeeping and utilities are generally included, and some residences open directly to landscaped outdoor areas. Residents may personalize their living spaces with their own paint colors and décor, subject to community guidelines.
Meals are prepared on site and served three times a day, with an on-order option for added flexibility. Snacks are available between meals, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings or special occasions. Staff monitor dietary requirements and coordinate with healthcare providers when specialized menus are needed.
Daily life is supplemented by an activity center, a library and computer lounge, health and wellness programs, arts and crafts sessions, and various clubs and community groups. These services aim to keep residents socially engaged and physically active without leaving the property.
