The Maynard provides both Assisted Living and Independent Living, enabling residents to step up or scale back support as their needs change. Nursing staff manage wandering behaviors during the day and overnight, address elopement risks, and intervene when combative or other behavioral issues arise. Clinical protocols cover wound care, oxygen therapy, special diet management, and diabetes treatment whether the resident uses oral medication, injections, or a sliding‐scale regimen. Moderate dementia is supported, and care teams are prepared for residents who stay up all night or those younger than 60 who still require medical oversight.
Registered and licensed nurses are on site around the clock, backed by a second nurse on call. Background‐checked staff work awake night shifts, with additional personnel asleep and available if needed. Security measures include fenced front and rear areas, alarmed doors, WanderGuard systems, and emergency pull cords or personal response systems that summon staff or dial 911. Physicians and ancillary clinicians visit for podiatry, audiology, dental work, and behavioral health, while a dedicated therapy room supports rehabilitation plans. Direct‐care aides can provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they handle transfers ranging from walker supervision to two-person or Hoyer lift moves for bed-bound residents.
Apartments vary in layout and features. Some units offer private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent climate controls, and furnished living areas; others may allow personal furnishings and the option to repaint or decorate. Cable service, housekeeping, and either in-unit laundry or scheduled laundry service are available, though not every accommodation includes every feature.
Meals follow a set daily menu with the option to order alternatives at each sitting. Residents can dine in the main room, request in-room service, or reserve a small private dining area for family visits. The culinary team manages gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid diets, adjusting carbohydrates or calories to match physician-ordered parameters.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair access throughout the building, and outdoor smoking areas. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. On-site conveniences range from a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, and wellness center to high-speed internet, a library, and designated spaces for special-interest clubs. Communal gardens, a pool, stair glides, and regular religious services add further options. Transportation services cover scheduled medical shuttles, townecar rides, and proximity to public transit, while a concierge helps coordinate appointments and excursions.
