Assisted Living Care Services
At Serenity Gardens Assisted Living, we treat our residents like family. We pride ourselves on providing safe and nurturing environments for our patients while providing them with the individual care they need to live healthy lives.
Respite Care
Respite Care (short-term care) for your loved one when you’re called away on business or need temporary rest time. Unlike most other care centers, Respite Care at our Assisted Living Group Home doesn’t require a two-week minimum stay. We are flexible and accommodating, offering daily living assistance in a stimulating environment where they will develop new friendships and discover new interests and activities while enjoying the comfort of private/semi-private rooms. You can feel confident knowing that your loved one is in great hands and receiving the very best care.
Memory Care
Memory Care at our continuing care neighborhood provides a compassionate care for residents suffering from memory disorders. We help residents maintain a daily routine so they can feel more independent and enjoy a higher quality of life. Our staff treats residents with dignity and respect just like members of the family.
Hospice
Our team of health care professionals collaborate with the family’s hospice of choice and volunteers to provide various end of life services. This involves medical, psychological, and spiritual support for both the patient and the patient’s family. The goal of Hospice care is to help your loved ones who are dying and to help you have peace, comfort, and dignity. Our passionate caregivers work collaboratively with the hospice team to control pain and other symptoms so your loved ones can remain as alert and comfortable as possible.
Alzheimer’s
Serenity Gardens Assisted Living is designed to meet the specific needs of your loved ones with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. In a Residential Long Term Care environment, our specialized services include trained staff, specialized activities, ability of staff to care for residents with behavioral needs, double lock security system, and 24hr electronic monitoring system. Activities are carefully designed to match personal abilities and needs of your loved ones.
Diabetes and Insulin Care
Diabetes management becomes particularly challenging as a person ages, especially if there is any form of dementia present. And because a diabetic must maintain a strict diet in order to help control their blood sugar levels, many older people find it difficult to properly stave off diabetes’ most harmful effects because they simply aren’t able to monitor their blood sugars, administer insulin, or cook for themselves anymore. Meals are personalized according to the Provider’s order as it relates to the disease process.
We know the importance of monitoring insulin levels in patients with diabetes to avoid circulatory problems associated with the illness. Our trained Medication technician along with our Nurse Practitioner monitors and documents your loved one’s glucose as per Provider’s order. We medicate as per Provider’s order and ensure that the Hemoglobin A1C is done and results are checked and reported back to the Provider for evaluation. The Serenity Gardens Assisted Living and staff, understands that diabetic management is a lifesaving service.
Specialized Diets
The food that diabetic eats can control the amount of sugar in the body. A well-rounded diet that is geared toward the diabetic can improve the quality of life for the diabetic by reducing the need for insulin shots. Here, meals are prepared under the guidance of a dietitian who has a specialized knowledge in preparing food that is healthy for the diabetic. Our dietitian approves written menus and diet extensions, assist residents’ special diet needs, plan individual diets, and provide guidance to dietary staff in areas of preparation, service, and monitoring residents’ acceptance of these diets.
Specialized Care
Keeping the feet free from sores and moisture to prevent fungus is tantamount to a diabetic keeping their feet. Our staff is well-adept at helping your loved one with personal care needs that can prevent serious diabetic infections. Our staff assists with bathing, grooming, and dressing as well as with any specialized care that is needed to stave off diabetic injury, such as in dressing wounds or applying diabetic dressings. We have a podiatrist that works with your loved ones for foot care.
Oxygen Dependence
With residents dependent on supplemental oxygen, staff is trained regarding oxygen safety and practice safe oxygen handling procedures.
Wound Care
We strive to prevent your loved ones from developing wounds through our extensive nutrition program and activities.
