Juniper Village at Williamstown offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, with programming and staffing designed to meet the needs of residents who have complex or changing medical conditions. The team is prepared to manage advanced dementia and behaviors such as wandering in the morning or evening, elopement risk, and residents who stay up throughout the night. Clinical capabilities include comprehensive wound care, oxygen management, special diet preparation, and diabetic oversight whether the resident uses oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site, and a nurse is on call 24 hours a day to address urgent medical needs. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments.
Additional safety and support measures are built into daily operations. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift monitors residents and responds to pull-cord alerts from apartments. Fenced front and rear areas help prevent unauthorized exit, and the community can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, as well as partial help with meals. Transfer support ranges from standby supervision for walker users to one- or two-person assists for wheelchair transfers.
Apartments are designed for convenience and range in features; not every unit includes every feature. Available options may include a private bathroom, kitchenette for light meal preparation, independent temperature controls, and cable service. Staff handle housekeeping and maintenance to reduce resident responsibilities.
Meals follow an on-order system so residents can select menu items at each mealtime, with snacks available outside scheduled dining hours. Therapeutic diets for diabetes or other conditions are prepared according to individual care plans, and staff can help residents who need some physical assistance with eating.
Amenities and services extend beyond direct care. The community provides resident parking, is wheelchair accessible throughout, and welcomes pets; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. On-site conveniences include a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, and regularly scheduled religious services. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments and local errands.
