Calyx Living of Durham offers assisted living designed to meet both everyday support and ongoing medical oversight. A licensed nurse is on site and care staff are available around the clock to handle medication administration, vitals monitoring, and immediate response to health changes. Individualized service plans outline the level of help each resident receives with bathing, dressing, mobility, continence, and chronic-condition management. The community coordinates directly with physicians, pharmacies, and rehabilitation providers, arranging on-site visits or transportation to outside appointments as needed. Emergency call systems and routine safety checks back up these services so residents have consistent access to clinical attention.
Beyond core medical services, the community provides structured wellness and preventive offerings. Residents can take part in exercise sessions that support strength, balance, and cardiovascular health, as well as educational programs focused on nutrition, disease management, and fall prevention. Scheduled transportation is available for medical and personal errands, and a concierge team helps schedule lab work, imaging, or specialist follow-ups. Housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are handled by staff so residents can focus on recovery and daily routines rather than household chores. A full calendar of social, educational, and recreational activities is in place to encourage engagement and mental stimulation.
Accommodations range from studio suites to one-bedroom apartments, each equipped with a private bath, individual climate control, and an emergency call device. Weekly housekeeping, linen changes, and maintenance are included, and most layouts offer kitchenettes, sizable closets, and large windows for natural light, although not all accommodations have all the listed features. Residents furnish their living spaces with personal belongings, and the community provides basic cable and Wi-Fi connections. Accessible design elements such as walk-in showers, grab bars, and lever-style hardware support safety and independence.
Dining services supply three daily meals in a communal dining room with restaurant-style table service. Menus are created by culinary staff in collaboration with a registered dietitian to accommodate diabetic, low-sodium, and other physician-ordered diets. Fresh fruit, beverages, and light snacks are available throughout the day, and residents with temporary illness can request meal delivery to their apartments. Theme meals and seasonal ingredients rotate regularly to add variety, and family members are welcome to join for an additional fee with prior notice.
