Blueberry Gardens 1 operates as a residential care home and is equipped to handle a wide range of medical needs. The team accepts residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement attempts, display combative or other behavioral issues, stay up throughout the night, or live with advanced dementia. Skilled staff follow physician orders for wound care, oxygen therapy, and complex dietary requirements. The home also welcomes adults under 60 and is able to manage all levels of diabetes, whether controlled with oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin.
Care delivery is reinforced by a nurse practitioner owner, an on-site RN/LPN, and a 24-hour nurse on call. An awake night shift, door alarms, and a personal emergency response system provide round-the-clock oversight. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting receive that help, and the staff can perform walker and wheelchair support, standby assistance, one- or two-person transfers, Hoyer lift transfers, and care for those who are fully bed-bound. Security personnel remain on site at all hours.
Resident rooms are designed for safety and comfort. Some accommodations include cable service for personal entertainment; availability can vary by room, so it is best to confirm the exact features of a specific unit during a visit.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet physician-ordered diets, with modifications available for diabetic, low-salt, or other special nutritional needs. Snacks are on hand throughout the day, ensuring residents have access to food outside scheduled meal times.
The community is wheelchair accessible, offers internet access, and uses an all-inclusive flat-rate pricing model that simplifies monthly budgeting. Its location near public transportation makes it easier for families and friends to visit and for residents to attend off-site appointments.
