Keystone Place at Blairs Ferry offers Independent Living for older adults who are generally active but want the security of a staffed environment. Residents manage their own daily routines, yet a 24-hour team is on site to respond to emergencies, perform wellness checks, and coordinate with outside healthcare providers when needed. Each apartment is connected to a monitored emergency call system, and staff members are trained in first aid and CPR. Scheduled transportation to physician appointments is available, and the community keeps basic health information on file so outside clinicians can be briefed quickly if an issue arises.
Beyond these core services, the community runs evidence-based fitness classes, health education sessions, and regular blood-pressure clinics. A dedicated wellness director tracks participation and can suggest follow-up with a resident’s personal physician when trends indicate change. Medication reminders can be arranged for those who want them, and pharmacy delivery is accepted at the front desk. The staff also coordinates on-site therapy visits through third-party providers, which allows residents to complete physical or occupational therapy without leaving the building.
Accommodations range from studio to two-bedroom apartments, each with a full kitchen or kitchenette, private bathroom, individual climate control, cable hookup, and an emergency response pull cord. Select floor plans add features such as walk-in closets, in-unit laundry, or a patio or balcony; not all units include every option. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided, and building entrances are secured with controlled access. Common areas include a library, fitness room, and multipurpose space where residents can gather for programs or meet visiting family.
The culinary staff serves three meals a day in a restaurant-style dining room, offering multiple entrée choices at each seating and accommodating most physician-ordered diets. Menus are reviewed by a registered dietitian to confirm nutritional balance, and portion sizes can be adjusted for residents monitoring weight or blood sugar. Grab-and-go items and beverages are stocked in a bistro area between meals. Special occasion meals, such as holiday dinners or family brunches, can be reserved in a private dining room, and room service is available for a nominal fee when a resident is ill or recovering from a procedure.
