A Home at Shaw is a senior living community where staff focus on personalized support and safety, working around the clock to help residents with daily activities like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication, so there's peace of mind knowing help is always close, and while there's no detailed list of services or amenities available, the facility tries to make things as comfortable as possible with homey furnished rooms, meal services with special diet options-including vegetarian, diabetes, and allergy-sensitive choices-prepared by chefs, and community-sponsored activities to keep residents engaged, giving everyone a chance to stay active and build friendships, and for folks who need more help or have heavier care needs-including medical conditions like diabetes, behavioral difficulties, or even residents who can't walk-the staff can handle insulin injections, sliding scale therapy, incontinence reminders, and also monitor blood sugar, so you don't have to worry about complex health needs. They also make things easier for families by offering respite care, move-in help, and coordination with healthcare providers, so transitions can feel smoother, and there's transport and parking for those who need to go out, though transportation does come with an extra charge. There's a cozy dining room with scheduled meals, but all-day dining is available too, alongside housecleaning and laundry services, laundry and dry cleaning, and you get a phone in your room, which can make things feel a bit more like home, and they put together activities like movie nights, both onsite and offsite, plus there are indoor and outdoor common areas to spend time with others or just enjoy some fresh air in the garden with walking paths. For seniors living with Alzheimer's, dementia, or other memory concerns, there's a separate purpose-built building for memory care, with secured areas and systems to alert staff if someone tries to leave unsafely, so even those with wandering behavior are kept safe and can get individual care plans, cognitive activities, and specialized therapies meant to reduce confusion. The staff watch out for behaviors that need extra attention, and they've got an alert system plus 24-hour supervision. While you won't find a long list of services online, the focus remains on creating a caring space, promoting independence where possible, and ensuring health and well-being, with the right supports in place as needs get heavier, so residents can stay in the same community even as they need more care.
