Wentworth Senior Living sits in historic Portsmouth with three connected buildings, including The Governor's Mansion that's listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and you'll even find a museum room that shows off Governor Wentworth's imported wallpaper in what feels like a mix of old charm and modern comfort scattered throughout the place, letting residents have scenic views and a warm, home-like feeling in cozy common rooms and private, quiet apartments that can adjust as someone's needs change over time. Staff members, from the Director of Nursing to the Director of Resident Engagement and the Certified Dementia Care Practitioner, work together to create a safe, respectful environment, and there's a Director of Human Resources who looks out for the well-being of the staff, making sure low turnover is a goal and a happy workplace stays a priority, all tied together by a nonprofit model where senior health, independence, and social engagement are at the center of every decision made by the leadership.
Wentworth Senior Living offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, holistic senior care, hospice support, and even home care to help both people living on site and seniors in the greater community, and you'll find unique programs like the All Points Program™ for residents facing increased dementia challenges, meant to give every person clear, personalized support no matter which part of the building they might call home. The team uses an individual approach to develop service plans by talking over a resident's needs with their families, so every care plan-from Intermediate or Advanced Service Plans with medical and mobility help, to short term stays for those who just need some extra time-matches what residents need, and there's plenty of clinical and emotional support for people at any stage, including palliative or hospice care when it's required. The staff also make sure people can keep up with their interests and hobbies through enrichment programs offering social, emotional, physical, spiritual, and intellectual activities, and there's always an effort to maintain connections, using amenities like high-speed internet, transportation, and organized community events, plus a pet-friendly atmosphere for those who want an animal close by.
Families can expect the basics, such as dining options, housekeeping, laundry, and on-site resources, but there's also specialized memory care featuring trained staff in dementia and Alzheimer's support, with rooms and common spaces designed to help residents stay comfortable and secure. Apartments, which are quiet and inviting, allow privacy, but people can join group activities or enjoy the many warm spaces with others. The leadership team uses Lean Management to keep up with new ideas and improvements, and everyone-from maintenance to enrichment staff to the Directors overseeing admissions, nursing, and resident engagement-plays a part in the daily operations, making sure seniors are empowered to make choices about their own care and lifestyle. Wentworth Senior Living's commitment to its residents stretches beyond the building, with outreach and advocacy for Portsmouth seniors and support for community programs. Photo galleries and plenty of opportunities to participate in activities showcase daily life, while everything from transportation to resources for families comes together in an environment focused on safety, comfort, and personal growth for seniors at every stage.
