The Eliot at New Rochelle is a senior living community in New Rochelle, NY, where licensed caregivers offer assistance in several languages, including English, helping residents with activities like bathing, dressing, transfers, and daily living tasks, which is helpful for both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents. The community has assisted living, memory care, nursing home, and independent living services, and welcomes people who need extra support, especially through New York's Affordable Assisted-Living Program with Medicaid-funded home-care services. Caregivers and med techs help manage medications and health needs, and there's a Wellness Center on site, with an internist, psychologist, podiatrist, and physical therapists available, which makes it easier for residents to get checkups and therapy without having to leave.
Rooms come in different floor plans, with private or semi-private choices, and furnishings like flat-screen TVs, kitchenettes, private bathrooms, individually controlled heating and air conditioning, WiFi, and cable included, plus emergency alert systems in every bedroom and bathroom. Dining services offer three home-cooked meals every day in a large dining room, and there's an option for all-day or restaurant-style dining, which is good because a chef prepares meals adjusted for diets like diabetes or food allergies. Housekeeping, move-in help, laundry, and dry cleaning are available, so residents don't have to worry about daily chores. There's a beauty parlor and salon for hair care, and a computer lab for those who want to get online.
The Eliot has a movie theater with couches and armchairs, game rooms, a library, arts and music rooms, a fitness room, spa and wellness room, a garden, walking paths, private dining rooms, garden spaces, and areas made for group activities or quiet relaxation like parlors and country kitchens. Activities include enrichment events, devotional services, arts, fitness programs, and movie nights, plus community-sponsored outings, transportation, and parking for those who need to come and go. Residents have help available around the clock and enjoy both privacy and social spaces, which makes it easier to meet new people or spend quiet time alone.
The community is fully accessible, with ramps and stairs at the entrance, and care providers stay on hand throughout the day and night. The Eliot at New Rochelle focuses on making sure people can stay independent for as long as possible, supporting freedom of choice and daily routines in a comfortable, home-like place, and, by doing so, helps many people avoid or delay moving to a nursing home. The community is licensed by the New York State Department of Health and is part of a group with other locations, offering the same level of care and comfort for seniors who want support and connection.
