Bentley Assisted Living at Branchville offers two primary levels of support. Residents who need daily help with activities of daily living can opt for the Assisted Living program, while individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias can move into the dedicated Memory Care neighborhood. Short-term respite stays are accepted, allowing family caregivers temporary relief or giving prospective residents a trial period. On-site diabetes management and access to a visiting doctor and speech therapist add another layer of medical oversight to both care settings.
The community is secured to protect residents who may wander, and licensed staff are on duty around the clock. On-site medical services include incontinence and ambulatory care, medication management, hospice coordination, and focused memory-support programming. A registered nurse oversees care plans, while visiting occupational, physical, and speech therapists, plus a podiatrist, dentist, and optometrist, reduce the need for outside appointments.
Living options include a selection of private or companion suites. Some residences feature kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, Wi-Fi, individual climate control, and views of landscaped outdoor areas; others may offer proximity to a central fireplace or the community piano. All living spaces are handicap accessible, and pets are welcome subject to community guidelines, though not every accommodation has every listed feature. Ample parking is available for residents and guests.
Three chef-prepared meals are served daily, with an all-day dining program that lets residents eat on their own schedule. Menus accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, no-sugar, and organic selections, and guest meals are available for visiting family. International dishes rotate through the menu, and nutrition staff work closely with clinical teams to support specialized diets, including those required for diabetes management.
Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, and organized clubs that foster social connections. Indoor and outdoor walking paths, yoga and chair yoga sessions, happy hours, birthday celebrations, live music, and intergenerational programs fill the calendar. Planned social outings and a swimming pool add further options for exercise and recreation, promoting an active lifestyle within and beyond the community grounds.
