The Haven is a small, licensed Residential Care Elderly facility with only four beds, so each resident gets a good bit of attention, and families can feel some peace of mind knowing their loved one's in a residential setting where staff members are always close by. The building has memory care features like an enclosed courtyard, indoor and outdoor walking paths, and raised garden beds to help bring a sense of comfort and security to residents with cognitive concerns. Staff speak both Romanian and English, which works well for folks from different backgrounds, and The Haven does allow smoking, but only outdoors, and both cats and dogs are welcome. Housekeeping is handled for you, along with help for errands and grocery shopping, so there isn't much to worry about, and a beautician is on-site if someone wants a haircut or needs help with personal care. The home has private bedrooms and fully equipped apartments with air conditioning, ground floor units, and private bathrooms or bath tubs, so comfort's kept in mind, and there are many closets for storage.
The Haven serves meals using organic food when possible and cooks a mix of international cuisine, with options for vegan, vegetarian, low/no sodium, and diabetic diets, plus room service, anytime dining, snacks between meals, and guest meals for visitors. People can sit in the dining hall, on large decks, or choose private dining with their own suite or room. The common areas have a TV lounge, library, central fireplace, and patio outside, along with a butterfly and hummingbird garden, and there's always a place to relax or socialize. Residents can join in on events like BBQs, birthday parties, holiday parties, and dances, or take part in activities such as day trips, cooking classes and club, arts and crafts, exercise and fitness, music by resident musicians, and daily entertainment, all organized to keep minds and bodies engaged. Devotional activities happen offsite along with Protestant services and a Bible study group for those who wish to participate.
The Haven provides regular doctor assessments, a licensed nurse is on-call 24/7, and care plans are adjusted individually, with assistance for Parkinson's patients, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, incontinence care, diabetes care and monitoring, medication management, ambulatory and non-ambulatory care, and support for low-mobility residents-all under 24-hour supervision with a call system. Residents get support for daily activities and the staff offer standby help within arm's reach, paying attention to privacy and safety at all hours. The facility also offers respite care for short-term stays when family members need a break, and moving assistance if someone's transitioning from another home. Amenities cover internet access, cable TV, private phone, laundry and linen service, maintenance, and options for private, shared rooms, or suites, all fully furnished and with kitchenettes. The Haven has parking for visitors, transportation to doctor's appointments, and help with unscheduled needs, so most everyday tasks and worries are taken care of, allowing people to live with more independence and freedom while staying safe and supported by friendly staff.
