A Touch of Joy Assisted Living operates as a residential care home prepared to handle a wide range of medical and behavioral needs. Staff members are trained to manage residents who wander at any time of day, present elopement risks, show combative or other challenging behaviors, or remain awake throughout the night. Clinical support extends to wound care, oxygen therapy, special dietary requirements, and diabetic management—whether the resident is on oral medications, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. The community also welcomes residents under 60 and those living with advanced dementia, offering a consistent environment that can adapt as conditions progress.
Care delivery is backed by an RN or LPN on staff, with a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All employees undergo background checks, and awake night-shift personnel maintain continuous oversight while alarmed doors and on-site security help prevent unauthorized exits. On-site podiatry services reduce the need for outside appointments, and the residence can accept individuals with psychiatric diagnoses. Direct assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, all at a full-assistance level when necessary. Mobility support accommodates walkers and wheelchairs, offers standby or supervision, and includes one-person transfers.
Private and semiprivate rooms come furnished, and many can be personalized with residents’ own paint colors or décor; cable service is available in some but not all accommodations. Common areas are kept accessible, and housekeeping handles routine upkeep so residents can focus on daily life. Every room is checked regularly for safety and maintenance needs.
The dining program serves three daily meals with snacks always on hand. Menus can be modified for low-sugar, low-sodium, or other physician-ordered diets, ensuring adherence to each care plan. Residents in the independent-living section can opt into a monthly meal plan while still having access to medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, and laundry services tailored for their level of independence.
Residents find practical conveniences such as on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible entrances, internet access, and scheduled transportation, with public transit options close by for additional flexibility. Smoking is allowed outdoors in designated areas, and on-site religious services help many residents maintain familiar routines.
