Vicinia Gardens of Otsego provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to remain on one campus even as needs change. The care team is equipped to support residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, display behavioral issues, remain awake overnight, or live with advanced dementia. Medical oversight extends to wound care, oxygen management, special diet preparation, and diabetes care that includes oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. The community will also admit residents under age sixty when their healthcare needs match the services offered.

To keep those services reliable, a nurse is on call around the clock, and an awake night shift ensures continuous observation. Staff members undergo background checks and can be reached through pull cords and personal emergency response systems placed throughout the building. Security measures include fenced front and rear areas, alarmed doors, and wander-guard technology. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Team members provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained to help with walker and wheelchair use, standby or one-person transfers, two-person transfers, and bed-bound care.

Residences vary, and not every unit contains every feature, but available options include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, basic furnishings, individual temperature controls, cable service, and the ability to paint or decorate the space.

Meals are offered through a set menu as well as an on-order option, and snacks are available throughout the day. The kitchen staff manages diet modifications so residents with medical or personal dietary needs receive appropriate meals without extra planning on the resident’s part.

Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, a movie room, internet service, and communal gardens. Religious services are held on campus, and scheduled transportation is available for errands and appointments. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
