Alive at Ridge Road Assisted Living operates as a residential care home and is equipped to manage a wide range of clinical needs. The team is prepared for residents who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, display combative or other behavioral challenges, or stay up throughout the night. Nursing staff oversee wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetic management whether by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale monitoring. The community also accepts residents younger than 60 and those living with advanced dementia.
Registered and licensed practical nurses are on staff, with a nurse on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift ensures consistent observation. Safety measures include 24-hour staffing, door alarms, a fenced rear area, and an emergency alert system that connects residents directly to caregivers. On-site podiatry services are available, and the community is experienced in caring for individuals with psychiatric diagnoses. Direct care services cover full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from simple walker supervision to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for residents who are bed-bound.
Residents choose from rooms that may feature a private bathroom, furnished basics, cable service, and the option to personalize with paint or décor; not every room includes every feature, so confirming specifics during a visit is advised. Housekeeping is provided, and scheduled laundry services help maintain clothing and linens.
Meals are offered through a standard menu or made-to-order selections, with snacks available between meals. Dietary management covers gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans, and the staff can tailor other physician-ordered modifications as needed.
Available amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, an on-site barber and beauty shop, internet access, communal gardens, and regular religious services. Scheduled transportation helps residents attend appointments and local outings.
