There are private studios-some on the ground floor with wheelchair-accessible showers-and one- and two-bedroom apartments, semi-private rooms, and some places have kitchenettes, garden views, or private entrances and courtyards for independence in the Village View-apartments have air conditioning, emergency systems, free Wi-Fi, and Direct TV, plus cable or satellite TV. All kinds of pets are welcome, including cats and dogs. They serve three meals a day, and a registered dietitian oversees restaurant-style dining options, so people can get diabetic, vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, kosher, low or no sodium, and other special meals, even dementia-friendly dining with colorful tableware, and folks can order room service if they'd rather eat in.
The staff runs group activities every day, with choices like art classes, Bible study, cooking, karaoke, garden club, fitness classes, wine tastings, rehab therapy, trips into town, volunteer groups, educational speakers, and religious services for both Catholic and Protestant residents, with a chaplain who visits. There are both on-site and off-site devotional activities. People can use communal areas for socializing, enjoy country gardens, enclosed courtyards, a butterfly garden, hummingbird garden, patios, a fitness center, indoor walking spaces, a library, an arts and crafts center, and indoor and outdoor common areas, and some like to join social events and groups or just relax by a fireplace or play the piano. They've got personal laundry and housekeeping services, a beauty and barber shop, accessible apartments, and a help team to assist anyone who needs it-plus, people can get laundry, dry cleaning, and help with transportation for a fee. Specialized healthcare programs include ESPIRE pulmonary care, Just Breathe Recovery, and respiratory therapy, as well as short-stay rehab for those who need it after a hospital visit, and high-acuity and incontinence needs are managed by trained staff.
Personal care services here get tailored to fit the needs of each resident, and folks with early-stage dementia or trouble living alone can feel safe-there's security in place 24 hours a day. The staff encourages everyone to join activities that match their abilities and likes, helping people stay active and involved. DuBois Village Personal Care Community is not-for-profit and posts its prices and apartment ranges clearly, and some residents qualify for Veterans assistance. The building itself feels home-like, with awards for dining, activities, and friendliness. Support for long-term care decisions and help from senior living advisors is available, and the place aims to empower residents and their families with information and choices.
