St. Francis Woods sits in a peaceful woodland spot and tries to make folks feel at home from the moment they walk in with homelike décor and smiling staff always ready to help, and it has 92 private rooms so every resident gets their own space with a private bath, individual heating and air conditioning, a kitchenette with a refrigerator and microwave, free cable television, Wi-Fi, and all the utilities covered in the rent, which makes things simpler for everyone. The building includes a big dining hall, sunroom with an aviary, living room with a big TV, activity and recreation rooms, a beauty and barber shop, and a chapel where a priest comes once a week, so you can see they put some care into making spaces that are comfortable and meet a lot of different needs. Folks also like that there's a parking lot for residents and free rides to appointments or outings, which helps with errands and getting out in the community, and the on-site maintenance team is there to help if something in the apartment needs fixing.
Residents get weekly cleaning and laundry services, plus meals and snacks made with a focus on nutrition and quality ingredients, and there are a lot of activities on and offsite to keep people involved and active, whether it's fitness programs, entertainment, games, or even religious and social events, so there's always something to look forward to if you want to join in. For health, St. Francis Woods has 24/7 nursing care right there on-site, and staff are always around day and night to give help if someone needs it, so you'll find skilled nursing, therapy, medication setup and reminders, and special care for things like diabetes, incontinence, or trouble with walking. Personal care support covers help with bathing, dressing, and other daily routines, and there are accessible features like ambulatory assistance and wheelchair support, plus specially trained staff who work to make sure each person gets the help that fits their needs.
As a state-certified Supportive Living Facility, St. Francis Woods serves people aged 65 and older who want to stay independent as long as possible while having support close by, and it accepts Medicaid/supportive living payments to help keep things affordable. Residents get their own studio apartments with privacy, but the community's set up with lots of gathering places for socializing, worship, and entertainment, so it works for people who are still very active and those who need more personal care. Family ownership shows in the personal touches, and many people have mentioned how friendly and respectful the staff are. With transportation to physician appointments, on-site therapies, a gift and food store, a chapel, and a design that's more home than institution, St. Francis Woods tries to offer a choice for seniors who want help but still want their own space and community, with a focus on kindness, dignity, and respect.
