Pinedale Gardens Assisted Living sits at 1861 South Pinedale Road in the Florida Shores area of Edgewater, Florida, and you can tell it's made to be homelike and comfortable for seniors who want independence but need help with daily chores, things like bathing, dressing, medicine, and getting around, and there's always friendly staff there day and night, so someone's nearby to assist any time. The place has private apartments with either bedrooms or living spaces, some even have kitchenettes if folks want a little more independence, and rooms are furnished with things like cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, telephones, and washers or dryers available, and there are safety features like a sprinkler system and emergency alert systems because safety's important as people get older.
Residents get daily support with activities of daily living-bathing, walking, eating, dressing, and transfers-and a team of personal care assistants knows how to help people using wheelchairs or who have special mobility needs, and there's medicine management to make sure folks take the right doses at the right times. There's also specialized programming for memory care, for people with cognitive impairments or mild memory problems, so if someone needs a more hands-on approach or has trouble remembering things, staff try to make activities and schedules a little easier. Pinedale Gardens also works with families and health care providers to coordinate care, and they accept long-term care insurance if needed.
Meals are prepared to fit special dietary needs, including diabetes diets and food for allergies or other restrictions, and food's served in a restaurant-style dining room. Residents pick from menus, and there's scheduled meals every day so there's structure but still choice. The activities are a mix of scheduled programs and things the residents run themselves, so people can take on a leadership role if they want, and this covers social activities, arts and crafts, religious services, movie nights, and wellness or mental wellness programs, plus there's a fitness center for those that want to keep moving. For spiritual needs, there are religious services, and if anyone needs to see a doctor or get to a store or a local event, transportation is arranged. There's also salon and barber services and laundry or dry cleaning, and staff takes care of housekeeping so folks don't need to worry about chores.
Outdoor spaces include a garden and a patio, and there are walking paths so it's easy to get a little sunshine or join in gardening or other outdoor hobbies, and if someone likes a quieter moment, those spots are good for that too. The facility offers both long-term stays and short-term respite care in case families just need a little help for a brief period, and there's also a day program for people who don't want to move in but need support during the day. Private housing in the assisted living area is good for people who want an independent lifestyle with support close by. Licensed by the state of Florida (#13399) and following Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity rules, Pinedale Gardens Assisted Living tries to make people feel at home, with a focus on comfort, safety, and keeping residents involved and independent as much as possible through individualized care plans, help with medical care, and a supportive, peaceful atmosphere in a quiet neighborhood of Edgewater.
