Rochester Manor is licensed as a nursing home and provides 24-hour skilled nursing care for residents who need ongoing medical oversight. A team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants is on duty around the clock to monitor vital signs, manage medications, and respond to changes in condition. The facility also offers short-term respite stays, giving family caregivers a reliable option when they need a break or when a loved one requires temporary care after a hospital stay. On-site physical therapy is available five days a week, delivered by licensed therapists who work with residents to regain strength, improve mobility, and prevent falls. Therapy plans are coordinated with each resident’s physician to support continuity of care.
Beyond the primary medical services, Rochester Manor supplies routine assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and other daily tasks, adjusting the level of help as needs change over time. Wound care, diabetic monitoring, and pain management are coordinated through nursing staff and visiting specialists. The facility maintains relationships with local hospitals, laboratories, and pharmacies to ensure prompt access to diagnostic tests and medications. An emergency call system connects residents directly to the nursing station, and regular care plan meetings keep families informed about progress and any recommended adjustments to treatment.
Residency options include both private and semi-private apartments, each designed to allow personal furnishings while meeting safety standards. Some units feature in-room washer and dryer sets, cable television, individual climate controls, and phone service, while others share these conveniences in nearby common areas; availability depends on the specific apartment selected. Wireless internet access is campus-wide, and computer stations are located in communal spaces for residents who prefer not to maintain their own device. Many apartments overlook landscaped courtyards or the outdoor garden; however, not every room has a scenic view. The community is pet friendly, subject to size and vaccination requirements defined in the residence agreement.
Meals are prepared on site and served three times daily in the main dining room, with menus reviewed by a registered dietitian to support specialized diets such as low-sodium or diabetic plans. A café operates throughout the day with an always-available menu for residents who prefer flexible dining hours or lighter fare. Healthy snacks are stocked in multiple locations so residents can help themselves between meals. Staff members monitor intake for those with nutritional risks and coordinate with therapy teams when modified textures or supplements are required.
Recreational life at Rochester Manor is organized around an activity center that hosts arts and crafts workshops, weekly TV and movie nights, and a range of resident clubs that meet for hobbies or discussion groups. A library and computer lounge provides books, magazines, and internet-connected computers for email or video calls. Scheduled events encourage social engagement and help residents maintain cognitive and physical skills, while the staff adapts each activity so participants with varying mobility or endurance levels can attend comfortably.
