Chapin Home for the Aging sits across from Captain Tilly Park and offers nursing home and memory care services in a secure, gated building. People know it as a not-for-profit Skilled Nursing Facility, with a 4.5 rating from 59 reviews, for seniors needing long-term care, short-term rehab, and help with dementia or Alzheimer's. Chapin Home has board-certified attending physicians led by a full-time medical director who keep a close watch on residents' symptoms, vital signs, and comfort, and there's a team of nurses, therapists, and cooks who each focus on daily care, therapy, and meals that fit many diets and traditions. Residents can get psychiatric, psychological, dental, podiatry, audiology, and eye care, along with palliative care if needed.
The staff makes personalized care plans for every resident and follows strong infection prevention rules. Chapin has six different daily activities like group music listening, talk groups, trivia games, creative art classes, worship services, and sometimes even music composition, so people can spend time with others or enjoy a quieter space. The building has an outdoor garden, a weekly pop-up general store selling food, clothes, and gifts, plus a beauty salon for haircuts and other services, and people can visit in person or by video chat. Staff speak several languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Cantonese, Hindi, Italian, and Tagalog, which helps residents from different backgrounds.
The team focuses on both mental and physical health, and they aim to meet physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs with specialized care for each person, whether someone is staying for rehab or living long-term. Chapin Home has built its services and amenities to help older adults feel safe, cared for, and comfortable, and the gardens outside and views of the park bring a bit of peace to daily life. For anyone needing more help as they age, Chapin Home tries to offer steady care, good food, and ways to spend the days, all in one place.
