Hitchcock Square offers assisted living with medical oversight designed for residents who need routine support without giving up their independence. The staff can serve adults under 60 as well as older residents and is equipped to manage special diets, oral or injectable diabetes care, and mild dementia. Memory care programming and on-site hospice services allow residents to remain in place even as health needs change, reducing the likelihood of disruptive moves.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, and a nurse is on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, and 24-hour staffing and security systems include pull cords and personal emergency response units that link directly to caregivers. Residents have access to on-site nursing services, medication management, incontinence and ambulatory care, occupational and physical therapy, and podiatry. Daily living assistance ranges from full help with bathing and dressing to standby or two-person transfers for those who use walkers or wheelchairs, while eating is generally self-managed with staff oversight.
Apartments vary in layout, and not every unit contains the same features, but options include private bathrooms, individual climate controls, and cable hookups. Scheduled laundry service is provided, so residents do not have to handle linens or personal clothing on their own.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to accommodate physician-ordered diet modifications, including low-sugar and texture-controlled plans. Staff monitor food intake to ensure nutritional goals are met, and snacks are available between meals for residents who need smaller, more frequent servings to manage blood sugar or appetite.
Community amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, internet access, and maintained communal gardens. Scheduled transportation covers medical appointments and other essential trips. Pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
