Hearthstone Communities Briarcliff is a residential care home prepared to handle a broad range of medical needs. The team accepts residents who wander during either the day or night, are prone to elopement, display combative or other behavioral challenges, stay up all night, or require wound care, oxygen therapy, or specialized diets. Diabetes management is provided for oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale protocols. The staff also supports advanced dementia, including residents younger than 60 who need memory-focused supervision in a homelike setting.
Care is delivered by an awake night-shift staff with 24-hour coverage and secured premises. On-site services include high-acuity and non-ambulatory care, dedicated memory care programming, incontinence management, and full medication administration. Direct hands-on help is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer assistance ranges from standby supervision to full two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers, and the home can accommodate residents who are fully bed-bound. A pet-focused program is available for residents who benefit from animal interaction under staff supervision.
Private and semi-private rooms are offered furnished, with cable service available in many units. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, helping residents maintain clean and comfortable living spaces. Not every room includes all listed features, so families may wish to confirm specific details during a visit.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates regularly, and snacks are accessible throughout the day. The kitchen can manage physician-ordered or preference-based modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid diets. Staff monitor adherence to special diets and coordinate closely with the clinical team to support nutrition goals.
Common areas are wheelchair accessible, and residents have access to community-wide internet for personal use or telehealth visits.
