Addison House is a small assisted living community with room for up to four residents, set in a Cape Cod style house built in 1840, and you can walk around the landscaped garden or sit out and enjoy the fresh air, which people appreciate when they want some quiet time. The house itself has three bedrooms, one full bath, wood siding and a brick exterior, and there's a basement if residents need storage or just want to poke around and remember old house features, and the lot measures about half an acre, so there's some space to spread out without it feeling too big. Residents get help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and personal care, and there's medication management, special meal plans for allergies or diabetes, and three homemade meals a day served in the dining room, with snacks and all-day dining too if someone gets hungry off-schedule. There are housekeeping, laundry, and dry-cleaning services, and staff help coordinate move-ins.
Community life at Addison House revolves around daily scheduled programs, board games, creative projects, movie nights, and evening events, and there's music and pet therapy for residents who enjoy those, as well as activities like walking, outdoor time, and fitness classes, which keep people moving around and engaged, and the book room gives folks a quiet place to read, if that's what they like. There's a spa and health area for relaxation, and a mobile stylist or hairdresser comes by to help with haircuts and grooming. For folks needing extra health support, staff assist with diabetes management, including insulin, and two-person transfers, depending on what residents need, and 24-hour supervision means help is always available. The community arranges transportation for doctor's appointments, errands, or faith-based gatherings, and there's telephone service, Wi-Fi, and TV.
Addison House offers care options like respite care and hospice care, and there's support for people with memory loss or dementia, so families can know their loved ones have someone watching out for them. Residents don't have to worry about house chores like yard work or fixing things, and the maintenance-free living helps people focus on comfort and companionship in a home-style setting.
