Wintergreen Residential Care Home-North

Wintergreen Residential Care Home-North sits at 360 New Road in Brandon, Vermont, offering assisted living care for up to 10 older adults, and the facility runs with license number 619 under Vermont state guidelines, where seniors get help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving around, and staff take care of medication, meals, and basic personal needs and also keep an eye on things 24 hours a day. The home has single, semi-private, and small studio rooms that come fully furnished, with easy-to-use emergency alert systems in each living space for safety, and the bathrooms meet ADA requirements, which helps folks with physical limits move about with fewer worries, plus there're walking paths and garden areas out back, porches and decks for sitting, and a dining room for three meals a day-sometimes with snacks between meals. Residents get special menus if they've got diabetes or allergies, and the staff help manage medicines while working with doctors and other health people as needed, and if someone needs help with getting a shower or with incontinence, staff are ready to step in, plus there's laundry and housekeeping. There're programs for memory support and Parkinson's care, community-sponsored activities like movie nights, chapel services, computer classes, and group outings with transportation arranged for medical visits, and even a greenhouse for those who like plants, and a snack shop for folks who want a treat. Residents find a supportive environment with easy-to-read menus, parking, Wi-Fi, cable TV, phone access, beauty and barbershop services, and scheduled entertainment, with daily activities to keep the mind active, emergency systems, and concierge service if something extra's needed. Since 2014, state inspectors visited four times, found 13 citations across things like food storage, disaster planning, record-keeping, and medication management, but no fines were issued, and five complaints happened over five years, but folks there continue to run the place as a Level 3 Residential Care Home in Rutland County, with room for 10 people and a focus on helping seniors stay safe, social, and well-cared for.
