Frankfort Terrace is a care community dedicated to providing comprehensive and highly individualized support for adults facing a variety of chronic physical or mental health challenges. The focus is particularly on individuals who are unable to care for themselves, primarily due to mental health issues, which may also be complicated by substance abuse or dual diagnoses. The facility creates a homelike environment for its residents, emphasizing comfort and dignity with semi-private rooms and tastefully appointed accommodations that foster a welcoming atmosphere.
Residents of Frankfort Terrace benefit from a suite of convenient amenities and services designed to address both daily needs and overall well-being. Daily living is made more comfortable and manageable with provided meals, laundry services, beauty and barber services, and on-site religious offerings. The community aspect is further nurtured through organized community outings, which encourage engagement and enrichment for residents. The grounds are well-maintained, adding to the overall appeal and sense of serenity within the center.
A notable feature of Frankfort Terrace is its specialized life skills program, crafted to support residents’ mental health needs and their preparation for eventual discharge and more independent living. The program originally included modules on seven essential competencies for independent living, but it has since grown to include additional modules that address a broader range of skills. Among these are G.E.D. and health literacy programs, reflecting the facility’s commitment to ongoing personal development and tailored care. The life skills program has been recognized with the 2023 National Association of Rehab Providers and Agencies (NARA) Impact Award, and its expansion is overseen by key figures such as Linda Riccio, OT/L, Vice President of Therapy Services.
Staffing at Frankfort Terrace is monitored closely to ensure the presence of skilled and knowledgeable professionals who contribute to the quality of care and the positive environment.
