Novellus Cypresswood offers an assisted-living setting where residents receive day-to-day help with personal tasks and have access to on-site speech therapy, organized diabetes care, and planned respite or short-term stays. The community’s care plans are flexible, allowing residents to transition between services as health needs change while staying in the same environment.
Clinical support is reinforced by nurses on duty around the clock, an emergency call system with in-room alerts and wearable pendants, and a secured building entrance. Licensed staff handle medication administration, incontinence and ambulatory assistance, and hospice coordination. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists provide scheduled sessions, while a visiting dentist and podiatrist reduce the need for outside appointments. Memory care programming is available for residents with cognitive changes, and independent-living residents may add these medical services if their health circumstances evolve.
Residences feature step-free entryways, individual climate controls, cable or satellite television access, and optional Wi-Fi. Certain floor plans include kitchenettes and direct access to outdoor garden areas, and reserved parking is available for those who drive. A central fireplace warms shared lounges, cats are permitted under the pet policy, and barrier-free bathrooms support mobility devices. Because layouts differ, not every accommodation offers every feature, so confirming specifics during a visit is advised.
Meals, prepared by a professional chef, are served restaurant-style with an all-day dining option for flexible mealtimes. The culinary team can meet low-sodium, no-sugar, gluten-free, kosher, and vegetarian preferences, aligning with the community’s broader health and diabetes management programs. Snacks are available throughout the day, and tray service can be arranged when a resident prefers to dine privately.
Amenities include an activity center, arts and crafts studio, game room, library and computer lounge, and a movie theater space. Walking paths connect landscaped courtyards to an outdoor swimming pool, and organized programs range from trivia games and wine tastings to intergenerational projects and community service outings. Residents can also join planned excursions off-site for shopping or cultural events, providing additional opportunities for social engagement.
