Heritage Retirement Center sits in a peaceful area and holds up to 126 residents, who must be 55 or older, with rooms set up for wheelchairs and other mobility needs, including Hoyer lift transfers, wheel-in showers, and full tubs. The staff stays awake around the clock, always ready to help out with emergencies, medication, wound care, bathing, grooming, and all the regular tasks like dressing and toileting, and they're supported by doctors, nurses, and visiting therapists for physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The building features safety with sprinkler systems and easy access for folks with disabilities, and every room has air conditioning, cable TV, kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, private bathrooms, and choices between furnished units or using your own things.
People at Heritage can move in when they need just a little help and stay while their care grows, whether they need independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for Alzheimer's or those with cognitive needs, or even hospice care right on site. Meals get cooked by professional chefs and cater to diabetic or special dietary needs, so no one has to worry about cooking unless they want to, and you can always find something to eat with all-day dining and restaurant-style choices in the dining room. Seniors here have access to incontinence care, help with walking, diabetic care including insulin shots and sliding scales, and support for non-ambulatory residents.
There are plenty of community spaces, with a dining hall, movie theater, activity and fitness rooms, a business room, a library, and both indoor and outdoor common spaces-including garden walking paths and spots to smoke outside if folks want. The on-site beauty salon and barbershop help you keep up with haircuts or grooming, and the wellness/spa room, game room, and guest parking make social visits easy. Residents can join any number of daily scheduled activities, arts and crafts, music and fitness programs, mental wellness sessions, education classes, devotional services both onsite and at outside religious centers, and planned day trips around town, with transportation included in the cost.
The staff can help with advice, care planning, and moving coordination, and the community management group, which goes by Purple Door, LLC, brings in care providers when needed-like podiatrists for foot care and other specialists. Heritage Retirement Center takes long-term care insurance, provides laundry, housekeeping, maintenance, and gives everyone access to their own washer and dryer or shared laundry facilities if that's easier. The center tries to be supportive and welcoming, with spaces and features designed to keep people independent as long as possible, and if someone's care needs change, they won't have to worry about moving out-they can stay put while getting the right amount of help.
