United Methodist Communities At The Shores delivers Assisted Living with an emphasis on accessible medical support. Residents have regular access to on-site physicians, and the community accommodates respite or short-term stays for individuals who need temporary positioning after hospitalization or caregiver relief. Focused programs for diabetes management are available, and licensed speech therapists provide services for residents with communication or swallowing challenges. These care options are designed to help residents maintain stability while receiving the clinical oversight needed for chronic or acute conditions.
Beyond daily nursing oversight, the community is secured, adding an extra layer of safety for residents who may be at risk of wandering. On-site medical services include podiatry for foot health, audiology for hearing evaluations, and dental care, reducing the need for off-campus appointments. The community also accepts residents with psychiatric issues and maintains a dedicated therapy room that supports ongoing rehabilitation or maintenance therapies prescribed by physicians. This grouping of services allows residents and families to coordinate care in one location.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and not all accommodations include every feature. Some residences come furnished, while others can be personalized, including options to paint or decorate the room. Private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, cable access, housekeeping, and scheduled laundry services are available in select units. These practical features are intended to give residents a measure of privacy and independence while still providing support when needed.
Dining services aim to accommodate both routine and specialized nutritional requirements. Residents may choose from a set menu or order meals individually, and snacks are available throughout the day. In-room dining can be arranged, and a private dining room is offered for family gatherings or special occasions. Diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puree, and thickened-liquid options are prepared as ordered, ensuring compliance with medical or personal needs.
Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, and wheelchair-accessible common spaces. Pets are allowed, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Additional amenities include a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, stair glide, concierge desk, library, and various special-interest clubs. Transportation options encompass proximity to public transit, a shuttle for medical appointments only, and a town-car service for scheduled outings.
