Sentinel at Port Jervis is an assisted-living community that admits adults of a wide age range, including residents younger than 60. The team is equipped to support people who manage diabetes with either oral medications or insulin injections and can accommodate individuals with mild dementia. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments, and routine vital-sign checks help staff track changes in health status early.
Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, with a nurse on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, an awake night shift is in place, and doors are alarmed; pull-cord alerts in resident rooms connect directly to staff for prompt assistance. Caregivers can provide full help with bathing, dressing, and toileting while giving standby supervision for meals. Transfer help ranges from supervision to hands-on use of walkers or wheelchairs, and an activity director keeps daily programs organized.
Residences vary in size and layout but may include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, furnishings, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate the room. Because configurations differ, prospective residents should confirm which features are present in the specific suite they select.
Meals follow a set menu with the flexibility to place on-order requests, and snacks are available throughout the day. The dining staff can adjust textures, portion sizes, and nutrient content to meet physician-ordered or personal dietary needs.
Additional amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and designated outdoor smoking spaces. A barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access points, and communal gardens provide on-site recreation. Religious services are held within the building. Scheduled transportation is offered for errands and appointments, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience.
