Woodland Terrace of New Palestine delivers three levels of care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and a secure Memory Care neighborhood—so residents can remain in one community even as needs change. The team is prepared for complex clinical profiles, supporting residents who wander day or night, present elopement or combative behaviors, exhibit other behavioral issues, or stay up throughout the night. Nurses manage wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes in all forms, including oral medications, injections, and sliding‐scale insulin. Younger adults with significant health needs are also accepted, and the Memory Care program is designed for advanced dementia conditions.
Clinical staffing and safeguards are in place around the clock. An RN or LPN is on site 24 hours a day, and the night shift remains awake. Background‐checked caregivers respond through pull cords and personal emergency response systems, while fenced outdoor areas, alarmed doors, and full‐time security help reduce exit risk. On-site medical support extends to podiatry, audiology, a dedicated therapy room, and acceptance of residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while mealtime support is available for those who remain largely self-sufficient. Transfers can be handled with walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, or a one-person assist.
Apartments are offered in multiple layouts; some include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, in-unit laundry, and the option to paint or decorate. Other apartments rely on scheduled community laundry services or shared amenities, so not every unit contains the full list of features. Independent Living residents benefit from medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry service, and a predictable monthly meal plan that balances freedom with support.
Dining features a set daily menu, an on-order option for personal preferences, and snacks available throughout the day. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. The culinary staff accommodates diet modifications, including gluten-free and vegetarian choices, and works closely with nursing to meet physician-ordered special diets.
Residents have access to a broad range of amenities such as reserved parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie theater, wellness center, high-speed internet, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge desk, special-interest clubs, a ballroom with stage, a media room for computer classes, a techno lounge with gaming, stacked washers and dryers in all units, happy hour gatherings, a community piano, an art studio, and scheduled transportation. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
