The Foley Center at Chestnut Ridge offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and a dedicated Memory Care program, each supported by a clinical team that includes registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants. Residents can expect routine health assessments, medication management, 24-hour staff availability, and coordination with outside physicians or specialists. For those in Memory Care, the facility maintains secured areas and individualized care plans designed to address cognitive decline while monitoring vital signs and behavioral changes. In Assisted Living, support for activities of daily living is calibrated to each person’s abilities, and Independent Living residents have access to on-site nursing and emergency response systems without the daily personal-care services they may not yet need.
Beyond the core medical services, the community provides on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as rehabilitation programs for post-hospital recovery. Laboratory work, imaging coordination, and pharmacy delivery are arranged through local providers, minimizing the need for off-site appointments. A nurse practitioner visits regularly for wellness checks, and electronic health records allow quick sharing of information with family or primary physicians. Transportation for dialysis, chemotherapy, or routine doctor visits is scheduled by staff, and a fall-prevention program uses periodic mobility evaluations and exercise classes to reduce risk.
Residences range from studio suites to one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, each equipped with private bathrooms, emergency call systems, and basic utilities such as cable and Wi-Fi. Some units include kitchenettes, patios, or mountain views, but not all accommodations have all the features, so confirming specifics during a tour is recommended. Weekly housekeeping, laundry service, and maintenance are standard, and residents can furnish their spaces with personal items to make them feel familiar and safe. Safety measures include grab bars, non-slip flooring, and smoke detection systems monitored around the clock.
The dining program offers three meals a day prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with modified textures and therapeutic diets available as ordered by physicians. Meals are served in a communal dining room to encourage social interaction, and table service is available for residents who need assistance cutting food or adhering to dietary restrictions. A bistro area provides lighter fare and snacks throughout the day, and room service can be arranged for those recovering from illness or preferring privacy. Seasonal menu reviews help ensure nutritional adequacy while incorporating resident feedback.
