The Renaissance

The Renaissance sits on over three acres and feels quiet and safe, with a bed and breakfast ambiance and a wrap-around porch filled with rocking chairs, a big old cooking-style fireplace in the dining room from the 1830s, and twelve-foot ceilings plus wide, renovated rooms with large living and dining spaces. Residents can choose private or shared bedrooms, enjoy a 52-inch TV in the common living area, and gather in comfortable, clean indoor spaces or on the outdoor patios and gardens. The first floor is fully handicap accessible and an elevator makes it easy to get around, so folks using wheelchairs or walkers can move freely. The staff includes nurses, general practitioners, physical therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and a podiatrist, all knowledgeable in medical, non-ambulatory, diabetic, and incontinence care, and care levels range from light to heavy. There's 24/7 on-site staffing, ongoing monitoring, medication reminders, and help with daily needs like dressing, bathing, moving from bed to wheelchair, laundry, housecleaning, and meal services. Home-cooked meals use quality ingredients, with a focus on nutrition, and meal time always welcomes guests. The community supports adults 55 and over, but accepts younger adults who need some extra help, and provides memory care, assisted living, and even nursing home options for those who want to stay put as needs change. The place is fully sprinklered and keeps a strict no-smoking policy in private areas. Pets are allowed, but there's a no-pets policy for those who choose so, and parking is easy for both residents and guests. Activities are always happening, with music, games, arts and crafts, exercise, and even outings; there are devotionals off-site too for spiritual folks. Free high-speed WiFi and rooms wired for internet help keep everyone connected, and there's cable TV in common spaces for group entertainment. The Renaissance also gives counseling, therapy, and rehabilitation, offers preventive screening and assistance with medication-diabetic monitoring included-and will help with transfers and restroom reminders as needed. Folks can apply for VA Aid and have their needs matched to a range of ancillary health services, and laundry, linen, cleaning, and maintenance are reliable parts of daily care. The atmosphere here supports relationships and makes people feel valued and empowered, while the historic home shows its age through charm more than wear, having won a preservation award from the town of Marlboro. The Renaissance tries to keep everyone active and engaged, while making sure care stays personal, respectful, and centered around what each resident needs most.
