Woolwich House

Woolwich House covers nearly every type of care an older adult might need, so if you're looking for a place with rooms from studios to one-bedroom suites and you want choices about how much help you'd like, this is the sort of community where people can start off with independent living and still stay even if they need more care later on, with support that fits their situation. Some people live here completely independently while others have help with things like bathing, dressing, managing their medicine, meals, and laundry, and there's always staff around if anyone needs anything because they keep supervision and emergency response active all day and night, and there's even an emergency alert system in the rooms. People who come here can use the gardens, safe walking paths, and the central courtyard, and folks like to gather in the dining rooms or take part in events like movie nights and social gatherings planned each week, plus they run classes and workshops to keep everybody engaged. The kitchen staff prepares healthy meals, and they consider dietary restrictions like diabetes or allergies, so no one's left out, and people can eat in common dining rooms. For those who need more medical support, there's skilled nursing care always ready, along with things like rehabilitation, wound care, and hospice, and if someone just wants to stay for a short time for rehab or to give a caregiver a break, respite care's available, too. Memory care is on offer with a secure environment and specialized programs designed for people living with Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, including safe doors and 24-hour staff plus activities that help with memory. Woolwich House includes several buildings and homes with names like Hodgdon Green Boarding Home, Coves Edge, Riverside At Chase Point, and Inn Of St. Andrews Village, each with its own focus, and there's a long list of other options like Plant Assisted Living Services, Pleasant Hill Road, Thornton Hall Assisted Living, and Katahdin House, so families can find what fits best. They don't charge extra application or community fees, which helps make moving in easier, and moving day help is available, too, and rooms can come furnished. Transportation for appointments and outings is provided, parking's available, and linens and housekeeping get handled by the staff. People can find comfort here because health care is run in consultation with local doctors, there are robust staffing plans for nursing, and special attention goes to each resident's needs, whether it's care coordination, helping with transfers, non-ambulatory care, or memory support. There's always something to do, whether it's joining a club, walking in the garden, or taking part in daily scheduled events, which helps keep the community's atmosphere lively and social, and the whole place is designed to be comfortable, safe, and supportive as people's needs change over time.
