Umbrella Adult Family Home operates as a residential care home, with staff trained to manage residents who wander or have elopement risk both during the day and at night. The team is equipped to care for individuals who require oxygen, follow special diets, are under 60 years old, or live with diabetes managed by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale protocols. The home also accepts residents with advanced dementia and provides the associated monitoring and behavioral support these conditions require.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, and a nurse is on call around the clock. Direct-care staff are present 24/7, supported by a fenced rear yard, door alarms, and a PERS alert system to enhance resident safety. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from walker and wheelchair support to one-person assists, full transfers with a Hoyer lift, and care for bed-bound residents.
Accommodations include private rooms, some of which feature a private bathroom and cable service; however, not every room has all these features, so prospective residents should confirm availability. Rooms are designed to allow caregivers easy access for medical equipment and mobility devices while still offering personal space.
Meals follow a set menu that emphasizes balanced nutrition, and staff are prepared to modify textures or ingredients to meet physician-ordered diets or resident preferences. Snacks are available between meals, and diabetes management protocols are integrated into the dining routine to help regulate blood glucose levels.
The home is fully wheelchair accessible, making it easier for residents to move throughout common areas and outdoor spaces. Internet access is provided, allowing residents to stay connected with family, manage personal interests, or access telehealth services when needed.
