Edgewood Park Place, at 1930 E 12th Street in Casper, Wyoming, is an assisted living community that's been operating since 1984 under different ownerships, with Edgewood Healthcare acquiring it in 2017. The building holds 60 units and provides both long-term accommodations and short stays for seniors who need care, and it's set up so residents can live as independently as possible but still have help nearby day and night. The apartments are one or two bedrooms, with full kitchens, good storage, climate controls, fire detection systems, and emergency pendants for extra safety, and there's services like meal reminders, laundry, housekeeping, linen services, apartment maintenance, transportation scheduling, grocery delivery, and three meals a day with snacks.
Staff includes an administrator, nurse, and resident assistants who monitor health, manage medications, help with diabetes care and incontinence, and set up individualized care plans. Health programs here cover diabetes management, skin and nail care, disability support, and there are outpatient therapy options like physical and occupational therapy. The community looks at walking ability with gait speed analysis, helps people recover at home, and provides home health and hospice care for comfort during illness. Seniors can get timely health care, and there are extra supports for keeping up daily routines, even help improving the home with ramps or bathroom updates.
Edgewood Park Place lets residents join both quiet and social activities, from gardening in the outdoor courtyards to arts and crafts, group exercises, gardening, movie viewings, games, sunroom visits, time in a library, and even services at its chapel or beauty salon. There's gaming, social sitting areas, and family-style spaces for reconnecting. When it comes to transportation, the community handles bus services, non-emergency rides for medical visits, local transit, and scheduling. There's also support for food needs, SNAP food vouchers, home-delivered meals, and help with groceries, along with pantries and even soup kitchens nearby.
