Frequently asked questions
We understand the process of finding excellent care in a safe, supportive, and comforting environment for yourself or loved ones. We have experienced this with our own parents. We welcome your questions and want to work with you to find the best fit possible. Contact us if you have a question we haven't answered below.
- There is no ‘buy-in’. Every resident is on a month-to-month contract to allow for flexibility. We do not collect a deposit but do have a non-refundable application fee. If a client is accepted, we would ask for the first month’s rent at the signing of the contract and a nonrefundable ‘move-in’ fee of one-half the basic fee. Additional needs may change that require additional service and cost.
- Yes and No. We encourage consistent times of meals for nutrition and social interaction. However, we understand you have worked hard all your life and some days a resident’s preference may be to sleep in or have a late-night snack. Our staff is available 24 hours per day to accommodate most requests.
- We love visitors for our senior residents! We have a open visitation from 8am to 10pm, but with notice, and certainly, in the event of an emergency, we can make exceptions. We respect all of our residents’ privacy.
