The Greenfields Continuing Care Community in Lancaster, NY provides assisted-living care with a strong medical focus. The team is equipped to support residents who wander at any time of day, present elopement risks, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, or stay awake through the night. Nurses manage wound care, oxygen therapy, and detailed dietary requirements, including structured plans for residents living with diabetes—whether on oral medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale protocols. The community also accepts adults under 60 and is prepared to care for individuals with advanced dementia conditions.
Round-the-clock RN and LPN coverage is backed by an awake night shift, 24-hour on-site security, and in-room pull cords and personal emergency response systems that alert staff immediately. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting receive direct help, and a wide range of mobility support is available—from standby supervision for walker users to two-person transfers, full Hoyer lifts, and complete bed-bound care. An activity director coordinates daily engagement, ensuring that medical and safety protocols are maintained without limiting participation.
Living quarters vary in size and layout. Some units include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, furnishings, individual temperature controls, and in-room cable access, while all benefit from regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry services. Because floor plans differ, not every apartment includes every listed feature, so it is advisable to confirm specific details during a tour.
Meals are prepared on a set menu with the option to order alternatives at each sitting, and snacks are available around the clock. A private dining room can be reserved for family visits. The culinary team works with nursing staff to implement physician-ordered diet modifications and resident preferences, routinely providing gluten-free and vegetarian selections alongside other medical nutrition plans.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and wellness rooms, a movie room, internet connectivity, communal gardens, an on-site chapel, a library, and various special-interest clubs. Transportation services include scheduled shuttles for medical appointments, and the campus sits close to public transit options for added flexibility.
