Marbridge Living for the Intellectually Disabled offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living programs, allowing residents to move between levels of support as needs change. The community is prepared to manage higher-acuity medical needs, including residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, remain awake throughout the night, require wound care or oxygen therapy, follow special diets, are under 60 years old, or live with diabetes—whether managed by oral medication, injections, or a sliding-scale insulin regimen. Staff are trained to work with advanced dementia conditions, ensuring consistent oversight and intervention plans that adapt to cognitive decline.
Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on staff, background checks are completed on all personnel, and an Activity Director coordinates daily programming while 24-hour security monitors the grounds. Podiatry services are available on site, reducing the need for off-campus appointments. For personal care, team members can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person transfers, and staff are accustomed to helping residents who use walkers or wheelchairs.
Private and semi-private rooms are available. Some units offer independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate the space, though these features are not present in every accommodation. Families should confirm exact room specifications during their visit to be sure they align with the resident’s preferences and budget.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates to maintain variety while meeting nutritional guidelines and special diet orders. Snacks are kept on hand outside scheduled meal times so residents can manage hunger or blood-sugar needs without waiting for the next dining period. The culinary team coordinates with nursing staff to track dietary restrictions, including diabetic and texture-modified diets.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wide corridors and entrances for wheelchair users, an exercise room, a movie room, a wellness center, and communal gardens. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, shopping, and community outings, and families can arrange additional rides if required.
