Towers Retirement Home sits in Fort Lauderdale, FL, and serves seniors who need assisted living, memory care, independent living, skilled nursing, or help with mental health conditions, and most residents there do have mental health needs like bipolar disorder, so it's set up to support that, with direct care and nurses on staff and 24-hour awake staff for emergencies and daily help, and when you walk in, you'll see the indoor common areas where people gather, relax, play games or just spend time chatting while meals are served three times a day-those meals are homemade with dietary options for folks who need special food for diabetes or blood pressure, and there's always staff available for medication management, diabetic care including things like insulin injections and blood sugar checks, and help with incontinence if residents can handle some of it on their own, plus regular care plans get made and updated so each person's medical, emotional, and daily needs are met, and sometimes residents get personal help with showering, clothing, going to the bathroom, and other private things, and whether someone needs a little help or more constant care, the staff gives standby assistance for non-ambulatory folks and helps with two-person transfers from bed or wheelchairs but confirmation is needed on some of these supports.
They have about 80 licensed beds set up as studios, semi-private rooms, or two-bedroom spaces, and the facility is licensed by local or state authorities and managed by Towers Retirement Home Management, Inc., which means all the basic standards get followed, but what stands out there is how the staff-made up of nurses, caretakers, plus visiting podiatrists, dentists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists-provides support throughout the day and night, so residents don't have to worry about not getting the help they need, and when people want to relax or be social, there are indoor gathering spots, a wellness area, maybe a steam room or hot tub, and sometimes they even have reading rooms, garden spaces, and game rooms if folks want something quiet or fun, and outside of organized events like movie nights, music, board games, or fitness, there are also pet therapy and creative programs to get everyone engaged, even on tough days.
People living at Towers Retirement Home find devotional activities on-site and off-site, and the staff arranges transportation to those and to medical appointments or errands to make life a bit easier, since driving isn't always possible anymore, and visitors see that everyone comes together for entertainment or special events like social nights, though peace and quiet are always there for those who prefer it. The place allows both male and female residents and offers options for short-term or respite care, long-term stays, and support for memory loss, and dental, podiatry, and therapy services are all available for check-ups or treatment. Outdoor smoking is allowed in designated areas, and the setting feels warm, home-like, and comfortable, aiming to give every resident a secure and easygoing retirement where there's always someone nearby to lend a hand, answer a call, or join in on whatever activity the day might bring.
