Keystone Place at Wooster Heights sits in Danbury, Connecticut, and serves seniors looking for a place that covers independent living, assisted living, and memory care, so folks can find the right fit and stay as their needs change, which many people call aging in place. The building has three floors, and there's a range of private apartments-studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms-all with air conditioning, cable TV, kitchenettes or kitchens, private bathrooms, and linen service, plus pets are allowed if someone wants to bring a companion. Residents get nutritious meals made on site with special diets in mind, like diabetes or other needs, and meals happen in a big dining room with a restaurant-style setting, so there's some choice and comfort there.
The staff help with activities like dressing, bathing, transfers, and getting around, plus there's medication management, laundry, housekeeping, and 24-hour support and supervision with a call system for any help that's needed day or night. Memory care uses a program called Holistic Harbors, with a focus on connection and engagement for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and the place has features to help reduce confusion and help prevent wandering. Residents who need more help can use on-site nursing, coordination with doctors, hospice waiver, and therapy services like speech, physical, and occupational therapy, along with general counseling. A registered nurse is on staff, and the caregivers have extra training on geriatric and disease care.
The community does a good job keeping things safe, with features like handrails, handicap-accessible spaces, a sprinkler system, and regular landscape maintenance, and there's parking for visitors. For social life, there are live events, activities, day trips, crafts, fitness classes including tai chi, volunteering, and a range of programs for both physical and mental wellness, with a small library, computer center, fitness room, gardens, game rooms, outdoor seating with walking paths, and a beauty salon too. WiFi and telephones are available throughout the building, and the apartments are fully furnished if needed, though residents can bring their own things to make it cozy.
