Mabel’s House Assisted Living operates as both an Assisted Living residence and a Residential Care Home, allowing it to serve older adults who need varying levels of daily support. The care team is trained to manage complex medical needs, including residents who are combative, have behavioral challenges, require wound care, use supplemental oxygen, or live with diabetes—whether managed by oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. Advanced dementia conditions are also supported, giving families an option when cognitive decline becomes pronounced.
Clinical oversight is built into the community’s structure. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site, and a nurse remains on call around the clock. Night-shift staff stay awake to monitor residents, and door alarms add an extra layer of safety. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Direct hands-on help is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, with transfer assistance ranging from standby supervision to two-person transfers for wheelchair users.
Residents live in furnished accommodations designed to reduce move-in stress. While furnishings are provided, room layouts and specific features can vary, and not every unit offers every amenity, so families may want to confirm details during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu that emphasizes balanced nutrition served at scheduled times, and snacks are available between meals for residents who need additional calories or prefer smaller, more frequent portions. Staff can accommodate texture modifications or physician-ordered diets that align with a resident’s medical plan.
Outdoor smoking areas are designated for residents who smoke. Scheduled community transportation and proximity to public transit help residents keep medical appointments and maintain social connections without relying solely on family for rides.
