The Rutherford Assisted Living offers a single level of care—assisted living—but it is supported by a broad range of clinical resources. Licensed staff can manage oxygen therapy and both oral and injectable diabetic medications, and they coordinate closely with on-site professionals that include a nurse, physical and occupational therapists, a podiatrist, a dentist, and hospice personnel. Ambulatory care, incontinence care, medication management, and short-term rehabilitative services are available without requiring residents to leave the campus. Although some services are designed for memory support, the assisted-living program itself does not accept residents with diagnosed dementia conditions.
Daily support is delivered by an awake night staff and a daytime team trained to provide full assistance with bathing and standby help for transfers using walkers, wheelchairs, or a one-person assist. Residents who remain independent with eating, dressing, and toileting are encouraged to continue their own routines, with supervision available if needed. The building is monitored around the clock, and scheduled nurse oversight helps ensure that care plans stay current as health needs change.
Private and companion suites are offered, and select floor plans include a kitchenette for light meal preparation. Residents furnish their spaces to taste and may add personal safety devices such as grab bars or raised toilet seats. Because layouts vary, prospective residents should confirm which features are included in the specific apartment they are considering.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals and maintains an all-day dining menu for off-schedule appetites. Special diets for diabetes or low-sodium needs can be accommodated, and guests are welcome to join residents for meals with advance notice. Hydration stations and snacks remain available throughout the day.
Community conveniences include an on-site barber and beauty shop, scheduled religious services, and campus-wide internet access so residents can stay connected with family and friends.
