Wheeler Terrace sits as a retirement community and assisted living facility where folks can find many levels of care on one campus, so you'll see independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, even adult day and respite care all under the same roof, which can make life easier if needs change as folks age. The care team includes a full-time registered nurse who's always on hand for care planning and support, with 24-hour nursing staff available and a call system in apartments in case anyone needs help at any hour, and they do their best to adapt care plans for each resident-covers help with things like bathing, dressing, medications, and there's a good support system for all that, and they're licensed with Facility ID 000997 and License No. 311661. There's hospice care and Medicare-certified home health available, plus non-medical home care for folks who want help in their own apartment or even at home nearby, so even if someone needs a little extra, the same team can help both on and off campus. Residents have a choice of apartments with climate control, kitchenettes, safety systems, carpeting, refrigerators, and indoor mailboxes, along with smoke detectors and sprinklers for safety, and shared spaces include activity rooms, lounges, a library, game room, fitness and wellness areas, plus a salon and barber shop right on site for haircuts or a little pampering.
Pets are welcome, with dogs and cats as options and a secured dog park outside, so folks don't have to leave their animal friends behind, and there are two outdoor courtyards for gardening or just enjoying some fresh air-there's even a peaceful covered porch with cushioned seats for sitting and visiting. Wheeler Terrace runs group exercise classes like yoga and tai chi, and the social calendar's full of church services, arts and crafts, card games, bingo, painting, music, dance entertainment, and regular field trips out to the community or for shopping, and there's a full-time activities director making sure people can join in if they want. Dining services let guests join residents for meals, and meals get good reviews for being hearty and varied, with a warm, familiar dining hall and a kitchen staff used to special diets if folks need that. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen service come weekly, and there's help with apartment maintenance, so no one needs to worry about upkeep.
Parking's available in a lot, and scheduled transportation runs for appointments, errands, and outings, so you'll see vans taking groups to local stores or community events. Folks have access to a wide range of wellness and fitness programs, along with support and programs for Alzheimer's and memory loss, and the activities calendar tries to keep everyone involved regardless of ability, with both group and quieter options. Safety's top of mind, with secure systems and plenty of nursing support any time of day or night. The whole place gets described as warm, welcoming, and made for making memories-no hype, just a community set up to support seniors with whatever they need and some room for laughter and pets along the way.
