Skilled Nursing Facility At North Hill in Neesham, MA provides three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care. Residents with conditions such as wandering behaviors (morning or evening), elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, oxygen needs, special diets, and diabetes managed with oral medication are accepted. The community is also prepared to care for individuals living with advanced dementia.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight comes from licensed RNs or LPNs on site, with an on-call nurse available 24 hours a day. Staff members undergo background checks, and an awake night shift ensures residents are monitored overnight. Security measures include a fenced rear area, alarmed doors, pull-cord alerts, personal emergency response systems, and 24-hour on-site personnel. On-site medical services extend to podiatry, audiology, dental visits, and a therapy room. Residents who need help bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting can receive full assistance. Transfer support ranges from one-person and two-person pivots to mechanical lifts for full transfers. An activity director plans structured programming throughout the day.
Apartments may offer a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable, in-unit laundry, and the option to paint or decorate; however, not every unit includes every feature. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, and Independent Living residents can arrange housekeeping, laundry, and medication-management monitoring through add-on packages.
Meals are available through a set menu or made-to-order system, with snacks offered throughout the day, an option for in-room dining, and access to a private dining room for gatherings. Diets can be modified for gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, purée, or thickened-liquid requirements. Independent Living residents may join a monthly meal plan that covers a preset number of meals in the main dining room.
Residents have access to parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, communal gardens, a barber/beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, library, special-interest clubs, internet access, concierge services, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation is available, and the property is close 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.
