Hunt Nursing & Rehab Center in Danvers, MA provides three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—allowing residents to move between service tiers without leaving the community. The clinical team accepts residents who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, or stay up throughout the night. Staff are trained to manage advanced dementia as well as complex medical needs such as wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes treated with either oral medication or injections. Adults under age 60 are also eligible, making the center an option for younger individuals who require ongoing support.
Around-the-clock care is delivered by RNs and LPNs who are on site 24 hours a day, with an additional nurse on call for overflow or emergency guidance. Night shifts are fully awake, all employees undergo background checks, and safety measures include a fenced rear area, alarmed doors, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems. On-site medical providers offer podiatry, audiology, dental visits, and a therapy room for rehab services. Residents who need full help with bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting receive it, and mobility support ranges from standby assistance to two-person transfers and Hoyer lifts.
Living spaces vary, and not every unit includes every feature, but options can include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent climate controls, cable service, and the ability to paint or decorate. Regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, and Independent Living residents can add medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, and laundry services on an as-needed basis.
Meals feature both set menus and made-to-order options, with snacks available throughout the day, in-room dining when required, and a private dining room for family gatherings. The culinary team accommodates physician-ordered modifications including mechanical soft, puréed, thickened-liquid, vegetarian, and other specialized diets.
Amenities at Hunt Nursing & Rehab Center include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge assistance, library, special-interest clubs, scheduled transportation, and proximity to public transit. Outdoor smoking areas are designated, and pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
