Sumpter Senior Living in Belleville operates solely as an assisted-living community, so every resident receives support with activities such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication reminders. For families seeking temporary options, the residence also accepts respite or short-term stays, giving caregivers a break while maintaining professional oversight. Diabetes management is available and includes blood-glucose monitoring, insulin administration, and dietary adjustments ordered by a physician. Around-the-clock staff coverage allows timely response to routine needs and emerging health issues.
Clinical oversight extends beyond basic assistance. Licensed nurses coordinate care plans, handle medication ordering and refills, and schedule lab work or therapy visits when prescribed. The team arranges transportation for specialist appointments and communicates findings back to primary doctors. Routine vital-sign checks, fall-prevention reviews, and wellness assessments are incorporated into each resident’s service plan. Families receive regular updates so they can track changes in condition and adjust care levels as needed.
Private and companion suites are available, and floor plans vary in size and amenities. Some units feature full kitchens, bath tubs, ground-floor access, or private patios, decks, or balconies, while others offer more streamlined layouts for residents who prefer less upkeep. Cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, individually controlled air conditioning, wheelchair-accessible showers, and handicap-accessible design are common, but not every unit contains every feature listed. Indoor and outdoor common areas, including a TV lounge and patio seating, provide additional space for relaxation. Uncovered resident parking is available for those who still drive.
Dining follows a three-meal schedule with snacks, and menus are adapted for therapeutic needs such as low-sodium, no-sugar, vegetarian, or pureed diets. Meals are served restaurant-style in the communal dining room, but room service can be requested for recovery days or personal preference. A private dining room is set aside for family gatherings, and seasonal barbecues and picnics are organized when weather allows. Staff dietitians monitor nutritional intake and coordinate closely with the nursing team to support diabetes care and other medical directives.
Residents can participate in an arts and crafts center, on-site and off-site activity programs, holiday and birthday parties, Bible study, light-therapy sessions, and community service projects. A movie and theater room hosts regular film nights, and partnerships with local organizations encourage volunteer opportunities. These structured activities aim to maintain cognitive engagement, social connection, and daily routine without overwhelming residents who prefer quieter schedules.
