Visiting Nurse Assisted Living Community in Somerville, Massachusetts offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Residential Care Home options under one roof. Residents who need clinical oversight have access to wound care, oxygen management, specialized meal plans for a range of medical diets, and diabetic support whether they use oral medications or insulin injections. The community will also admit adults under 60 who require these services, and staff are trained to work with residents who have mild dementia. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on the team to coordinate medical care and communicate with primary physicians.

Additional safeguards include 24-hour awake night staff, systemwide background checks, pull-cord alerts in apartments, and personal emergency response systems that link directly to on-site staff. Routine podiatry, audiology, and dental appointments are scheduled on the premises, reducing the need for outside trips. Full-assistance help is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and mobility support ranges from standby supervision to one- and two-person transfers and full Hoyer-lift moves. An activity director oversees daily programs designed to keep residents engaged while respecting individual care plans.

Apartments vary in layout; some have private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and independent temperature controls, while others feature a more traditional studio design. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided for all residents, though frequency can differ by unit type. Independent Living residents can opt for weekly housekeeping, launder their own clothes or use staff services, and purchase a monthly meal plan if they prefer fewer cooking responsibilities.

Meals follow a set menu that meets nutritional guidelines and can be modified for physician-ordered diets. Snacks are available throughout the day, and a private dining room can be reserved for family visits or special events. Assisted-living residents receive three daily meals, while Independent Living residents choose between the full dining program or the meal plan mentioned above.

The community includes resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, and reliable internet access. Residents can read in the library, join special-interest clubs, walk in the communal gardens, or ask the concierge for help with reservations and deliveries. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit make off-site appointments and errands straightforward, and these services are coordinated through the front desk.
