Mayfair House Assisted Living in Portsmouth offers two levels of residential care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—so residents can receive support matched to their daily needs and cognitive status. Short-term respite stays are available, and the team is equipped to manage diabetes through on-site nursing oversight and specialized diabetic care programs. Residents have access to speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and podiatry without leaving the building, while medication management and hospice coordination are handled by licensed staff. Assistance with bathing, dressing, eating and toileting is provided as needed, and care plans can be adjusted quickly when a resident’s condition changes.
Registered and licensed nurses are on the property 24 hours a day, backed by an additional nurse on call around the clock. Staffing includes awake night-shift personnel, an activity director and security staff who monitor door alarms and perform routine safety checks; all employees undergo background screening. On-site medical services cover ambulatory support, incontinence care and memory-specific programming delivered in a secured environment. Hospice, independent living and standard assisted-living services are also available on campus, creating a continuum of care that allows most residents to remain in place even as health conditions evolve.
Accommodation options range from studios to larger apartments. Depending on the unit selected, residents may have a private bathroom, kitchenette, in-unit laundry, independent temperature controls and cable service; not every apartment includes every feature. Standard housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, and independent living residents can request additional housekeeping to keep their spaces clean without lifting a finger.
Meals are prepared on site, and dietitians work with nursing staff to accommodate physician-ordered meal plans such as diabetic, low-sodium or mechanical-soft diets. Snacks are available throughout the day, and families can reserve a private dining room for gatherings or celebrations. Residents who prefer a lighter breakfast or late-night snack can access common-area pantries at their convenience.
The community offers resident parking, a wellness center, internet access throughout the building and landscaped communal gardens. A concierge desk helps residents schedule transportation, access the on-site library and join special-interest clubs, while designated smoking areas are available outdoors. Public transportation stops are located nearby for residents or visitors who prefer not to drive.
