The community has semi-private or one-bedroom units, which are furnished, and people can pick the best option for their needs, and the rooms have cable, WiFi, and telephones, so residents can stay in touch and entertained, and staff is always around day and night to help out with daily activities, medication reminders, bathing, dressing, transfers, and anything else that may come up.

Assisted living, memory care, and board and care services are all available here, and they make sure residents living with dementia have a safe, supervised space and get specialized memory-enhancing activities, so folks with memory loss still have a good quality of life and are supported. The facility operates through three departments including in-home caregiving, post-hospital and rehab care, and primary medical management, and provides help not just at the main facility but in clients' own homes, condos, or apartments too if needed, so the care can follow each person's unique situation, offering medical management, chronic illness care, and symptom support, especially for folks with movement disorders like Parkinson's, PSP, stroke recovery, and muscle deconditioning.
There's transportation help for doctor appointments and medical visits, and move-in coordination for anyone transitioning to the community is offered, which can take some of the stress out of the process. The supportive staff includes healthcare professionals ready to coordinate with doctors, provide 24-hour supervision, and respond to emergencies, so help is always at hand. They also provide respite care for short stays, so family caregivers can get a needed break.
S & L Assisted Living also focuses hard on elder abuse and neglect cases, so if folks ever experience neglect or abuse in nursing homes-including things like bedsores or repeated unexplained falls, which sometimes occur because of improper staffing or overcrowding that happens when homes try to fill every bed-they offer legal representation for residents and families, assistance with documenting signs of neglect, free consultations, and help filing lawsuits against nursing homes for negligence or abuse. The team acknowledges that sometimes neglect isn't about intentional abuse but can be injuries or suffering due to a lack of attention, and they encourage keeping notes when anything seems wrong, so families can protect their loved ones' rights if needed.
