Preston Place Suites provides assisted-living care with an emphasis on consistent medical oversight. The community can manage wound care, oxygen use and a broad range of diabetic needs, including oral medications, injections and sliding-scale insulin. Special diets are prepared for residents who require them, and the staff is equipped to support individuals under the age of 60 as well as those living with mild dementia.
Around-the-clock nursing coverage is maintained by RNs and LPNs, and all employees undergo background checks. A nurse is on site 24 hours a day, and each apartment is outfitted with a pull-cord alert system that summons staff. On-site podiatry visits are available, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric conditions who can benefit from its structured environment. Caregivers offer full assistance with bathing, dressing and toileting, while supervision is provided during meals for residents who can feed themselves. Transfer support ranges from standby help to two-person transfers, and accommodations are made for walkers and wheelchairs. An activity director coordinates daily programming to keep residents engaged.
Resident apartments are designed for practicality and some personalization. Many units include a private bathroom, independent temperature controls, cable service and space to add a small refrigerator, and residents may paint or decorate to suit their taste. Not every room has every feature, so it is advisable to confirm specific details during a tour.
The dining program combines a set menu with an on-order option at each meal. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the kitchen staff can adjust textures, portion sizes and ingredients to meet physician-ordered dietary modifications.
Amenities and services are arranged to reduce out-of-pocket costs, with all-inclusive pricing that covers resident parking, laundry, internet, wheelchair-accessible common areas and transportation to appointments. The campus has a barber and beauty shop, activity room, communal gardens, private dining room for family gatherings, non-smoking indoor spaces, on-site religious services, a general store and scheduled field trips. Roll-in showers and visiting physician services add convenience, and a Walmart shop-from-home program helps residents obtain personal items. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
