Kendal On Hudson sits near the Hudson River and right by Rockwood Hall State Park, so you get lots of green space and water views, and the whole place has a peaceful, quiet feel to it, with a mid-rise building that has balconies and pretty outdoor patios that face the river. They've got different types of housing-studio apartments, one-bedroom, one-bedroom with a den, two-bedroom, and two-bedroom with a den, so folks can really pick what suits them, and all the apartments have things like one meal served each day, utilities included, and chores like trash or snow removal and even transportation to the express train to New York City if you need to get around. The community center and dining rooms are welcoming and let residents meet friends or visit with family, and the campus has pet-friendly spaces plus some animals available for those who want a pet but didn't bring one.
Kendal On Hudson covers a lot of care levels-it has independent living, assisted living for those who need a bit of extra help, a health center with skilled nursing for both short and long stays, and separate memory care services for those with memory issues. There's a nurse available 24 hours a day, a specialized group of caregivers, and you can get physical therapy right on-site, so support's always close if someone needs it. They make safety a priority too, with a 24-hour emergency response and well-kept grounds, and they run scheduled tours so new people can see how things work and meet folks already living there.
The staff takes care of daily chores and upkeep, so residents don't have to worry about household work or maintenance, and the kitchen serves healthy and tasty meals that fit all sorts of dietary needs. The community runs lots of activities, and there's a focus on wellness with things like an indoor swimming pool, fitness spaces, and recreation programs, plus cultural activities and chances for lifelong learning. The place has a Quaker background, welcomes diversity, and encourages people to stay as independent as possible. Kendal On Hudson is a not-for-profit, part of The Kendal Corporation, and everything here tries to help people feel fulfilled and included while getting whatever health services they might need, all in a spot that really lets you enjoy nature and a sense of calm.
