Sometimes, we all need a break or even a little help! A respite stay may be just the answer you are looking for. Our Respite program provides temporary or short term residential opportunities in our well respected senior assisted living community. Think of it as going to a favorite resort or hotel.
Respite is ideal for those who need transitional assistance after an illness, surgery, or a hospital stay and are not quite ready to go home alone or even with family. A Respite stay also allows primary caregivers or family members to take a break by going on a vacation or just taking a few days to relax while knowing your loved one is being well cared for. Respite stays may be as short as a few days, or as long as a few months. By only signing a respite agreement, you select the length of your stay! However, we find that many respite residents enjoy the experience so much, they either move-in becoming permanent residents or they return again and again! |

Many times, residents take advantage of our Respite program to give them piece of mind that our community is the best choice. It allows the resident to experience the lifestyle, services and hospitality provided to all residents and assists them in making the right decision. Our well trained and caring staff is available 24-hours per day to our permanent and our Respite resident. To view our senior assisted living services offered please visit our assisted living services page.

As a Respite
resident, you will stay in our hospitality suite,
which is fully furnished. But please feel free
to bring any of your favorite personal items.
Our goal is for you to enjoy the experience and
for you to feel right at home. Respite residents
are provided all of the same services as permanent
residents but with lots of extra special attention.
We understand that you are “new” to
the community so we go above and beyond to help
you meet new friends, find just the right dining
room table, and we encourage you to join in with
activities that are of interest to you! |
Day Service, an Excellent Option
Our Day Service program is very similar to our Respite program, but it is designed for those who only want to stay with us during day-time hours. If you are caring for a loved one but you either have a career responsibility or alternate obligations in your own busy life, Day Service may be the perfect option for you! Please contact us today to learn about our Day Service programming and Day Service rates.
Pension Program for Veterans Assisted Living Residents
Are you a Veteran, the current spouse of a Veteran or a surviving widow or widower of a Veteran? The Veterans' Administration offers a Special Pension through the Aid and Attendance benefit for veterans assisted living that is largely unknown. This Special Pension allows for qualified Veterans and surviving spouses who require the regular attendance of another person to assist in eating, bathing, dressing, undressing or taking care of the needs of nature to receive additional monetary benefits. Assisted care in an assisted living community qualifies. A Veteran is eligible for up to $1,632 per month, while a surviving spouse is eligible for up to $1,055 per month. |
 |
A couple is eligible
for up to $1,949 per month. (*Figures are from the Veteran's
Administration as of 12/01/08. Please contact a VA office
near you to verify current Aid and Attendance monthly
payments.) The information contained in this paragraph
was taken from the VeteranAid.org website and we encourage
you to visit their website for additional information about the pension and veterans assisted living:
