Harper's Home For The Aged has been running since January 1, 1960, and gives seniors a place where they don't have to bother with cooking, cleaning, or looking after a house, so they can spend time on the activities they care about. The facility has 27 units in a community that's designed for people who want to keep their independence but still get help when they need it. There are different living choices--independent living for those who can manage on their own but prefer not to deal with maintenance, assisted living with help for things like bathing, dressing, and medication, and memory care for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia, including support to lower confusion and prevent wandering. The place allows pets, so residents can bring their animals, and there's 24-hour staff support if anything comes up.
Residents get nutritious meals made with quality ingredients, and staff can accommodate special diets, allergies, or diabetes needs. The facility also provides personal care, medication help, and nursing services for both short-term and long-term needs, including non-ambulatory care for those who have trouble moving. Housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning are all handled by staff, along with transportation for outings or appointments. The building is wheelchair accessible and has emergency systems to help keep everyone safe.
Community life at Harper's Home For The Aged includes activities run by staff and residents, like movie nights, walking paths, and get-togethers in the arts room or garden. There's a furnished dining room, a salon, and community spaces for relaxing or joining group events. The management team, led by Ms. Linda Grissom, keeps things organized and focused on residents' needs, and the business has been classified as a nursing home under a Limited Liability Company since opening a business file in 2018. The facility is recognized for care excellence and works to make sure residents feel supported and comfortable while keeping as much independence as possible.
