Vintage Park at Hiawatha offers Assisted Living as its primary level of support. Residents who need a brief recovery period or families seeking temporary relief can arrange for respite or short-term stays. Ongoing diabetes management is available, and care staff monitor blood glucose levels and assist with medication as ordered by a physician. A licensed speech therapist is on call for residents who require help with communication or swallowing concerns, providing therapy sessions on site to reduce the need for outside appointments.
Additional clinical resources concentrate on maintaining residents’ functional abilities. The community maintains a dedicated therapy room where rehabilitation exercises, speech therapy sessions, and other prescribed treatments can be carried out in a controlled environment. Care staff coordinate closely with outside healthcare providers, schedule follow-up visits, and track changes in each resident’s condition to help prevent avoidable hospital transfers. Routine wellness checks and assistance with daily living tasks are built into each care plan.
Apartments are designed to balance privacy with easy access to support. Some units include a kitchenette so residents can prepare simple snacks if they choose, while all accommodations are eligible for regular housekeeping. Scheduled laundry services are offered, and staff pick up and return clothing and linens according to a posted timetable. Not every apartment has every feature, so prospective residents should verify the exact layout and amenities during a tour.
Dining services prepare three meals each day that meet recommended nutritional guidelines for older adults. Menus can be adjusted for physician-ordered diets, including carbohydrate-controlled plans for residents managing diabetes. Guests may purchase meals and join residents in the dining room, an option that supports family engagement and allows prospective residents to sample the food before committing to a move.
The community’s common areas include an exercise room suited for low-impact workouts and supervised fitness classes. A full-service barber and beauty shop is located on site for routine haircuts and personal grooming. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach local medical appointments, shopping destinations, and community events without relying on family members. Pets are allowed in accordance with the community’s pet policy; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
