Netherbay at Bay Shore plans to open at the end of February 2025 and serves as a retirement community focused on assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care. The place is set up for folks who want an active life or for those who need different amounts of help, since they've got both independent apartments and levels of assisted living as well as skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and dementia care. Residents live in private apartments with secure entrances and exits, and they can get three chef-prepared meals a day in a restaurant-style dining room-meals come with special diet options, and move-in coordination assistance is available. There's a wide choice of community spaces, like a creative studio, activity rooms, a therapy kitchen, wellness center, therapy room, outdoor gazebo, garden, coffee shop, and parking lot, plus laundry and housekeeping with trash removal and linen services all included along with Wi-Fi and utilities. People can join fitness and wellness programs every day, whether they're strong or just starting out, with options like yoga and stretching, games, art, music, gardening, outings, literary activities, and tabletop hobbies, or go on organized field trips and shopping with community transportation.
The assisted living care covers all the basic needs like bathing, grooming, medication management, and escorting when it's needed, and nurse staff are available part-time for these services. There's a memory care program for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia called Montessori Moments in Time™, where activities aim to keep minds and skills sharp, and staff provide 24-hour support inside secure spaces and offer both early-stage and later-stage dementia care. Families and doctors work closely with the staff, and the community makes sure each person gets programs and daily activities tailored to their health and interests, with Life Inspired programming in assisted living, whole-body wellness plans, and specialty therapies like physical, occupational, and speech therapy right on site. Skilled nursing services like round-the-clock care, rehabilitation, wound care, ostomy and colostomy, Foley care, breathing treatments, sleep apnea care, and oxygen support are all available, as well as short-term and respite stays when families need them. Residents who have pets can bring them along, because the community welcomes animals and has pet-friendly amenities.
Netherbay at Bay Shore runs activities like horticultural and arts & crafts programs and gives space for guests to park or stay overnight. There's housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and private cleaning options, and the staff speak English. The building holds a pending state license. Residents have access to various payment methods, including checks and cards, and general transportation, like trips around town or to shopping spots. Veterans and families can also use VA Aid Assistance on site. Everything at Netherbay at Bay Shore aims to help seniors stay active, comfortable, safe, and as independent as they choose, while meeting both daily needs and special care situations. The building offers tours and shows photos for those who want to see the community ahead of time, and the staff strive to maintain a supportive place for everyone, with care that's both careful and kind.
