Heritage Assisted Living – Fountain City delivers assisted-living care with an emphasis on routine medical oversight. The community is equipped to manage diabetes, including monitoring and medication assistance, and it is staffed and structured to support residents living with moderate dementia. A nurse practitioner is on site to evaluate changes in condition, coordinate with outside physicians, and adjust care plans promptly.
Safety systems back up the medical model. Apartments are outfitted with door alarms and pull-cord call systems that alert staff at all hours. Caregivers can provide some physical help with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they are trained in multiple transfer techniques, including walker and wheelchair assistance, standby or supervision, and one-person transfers.
Accommodations include studios and suites, some of which feature private bathrooms, individual climate controls, and cable service. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, but not every residence contains every listed feature, so families should confirm specific layouts and amenities during their tour.
Dining follows a standard menu cycle, yet residents may order alternatives at mealtimes. Snacks are available between meals, and the kitchen can modify textures for mechanical-chop or puréed diets and adjust ingredients to meet physician-ordered nutrition plans.
Additional conveniences include resident parking, an outdoor smoking area, a barber and beauty salon, internet access, a library, on-site religious services, and shuttle transportation for medical appointments only. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
