Autumn Care of Chesapeake delivers licensed nursing-home care, providing residents with round-the-clock access to registered nurses and certified nursing assistants. The facility is equipped to handle both long-term stays and short-term respite arrangements, allowing family caregivers a break while their loved one receives professional oversight. On-site physical therapy services are coordinated with attending physicians to support recovery from illness, injury, or surgery, and treatment plans are reviewed regularly to maintain or improve mobility and overall health.
Beyond clinical treatment, the care team assists residents with daily living tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication administration. Care plans are individualized and adjusted as needs change, and regular health assessments help staff respond promptly to any emerging concerns. Coordination with external specialists and hospitals is available when more advanced intervention is required, ensuring continuity of care.
Resident accommodations include private and semi-private rooms, and select units offer in-room Wi-Fi access. Common areas feature a fireplace for communal relaxation, while landscaped grounds and designated outdoor areas provide space for fresh air and gentle activity. Because room layouts vary, not every accommodation contains each of these features, so prospective residents should verify availability during a tour.
Dining services consist of three nutritionally balanced meals prepared daily, with attention to medically indicated diets and individual preferences. Staff are present in the dining room to assist residents who need help eating, and alternate menu options are available to address allergies or texture-modified requirements.
Recreational and social amenities support daily engagement. The activity center hosts scheduled programs and crafts, organized clubs and community groups encourage peer interaction, and a library with a computer lounge offers quiet reading space alongside internet access for email and video calls.
