What is the difference between Independent Living and Assisted Living?
People who live in the independent section of our campus are responsible and capable
of their own affairs. They manage or delegate all of their daily personal and
financial needs. The residents of residential care (assisted living) require a helping hand.
We provide services that focus on maximizing each person’s capabilities.
Individual assistance is given on a regular basis to those requiring help with personal
grooming, scheduling and transportation to doctor’s appointments. Laundry and housekeeping
services are included, as well as administration of medications and treatments.
Residential Care (Assisted Living)
Are housekeeping and laundry services provided?
Housekeeping and laundry services are provided to each resident at NO additional
cost. Grace Village housekeeping staff keep apartments clean on a daily basis.
The staff as needed can do laundry or laundry facilities are provided in
Residential Care for those wanting to do their own laundry.
Are meals included in the cost?
Yes. All three meals are included in your monthly service fee.
Are Grace Village Residential Care apartments furnished or unfurnished?
Residents provide their own furnishings. This helps with the transition from your
previous home to your new home.
Will a nurse be present twenty-four hours a day?
Yes. A LPN and a direct care provider supervise the health and care of all
residents’ twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
Will medications be given to residents?
Yes. Our direct care providers are qualified to give medications to your
loved ones. Medications are distributed according to the resident’s physician’s
orders.
Do residents in Residential Care receive assistance with showers?
Yes. Our residents receive assistance once a week with a shower if needed.
It is the resident’s choice on whether or not to receive the assistance.
Health Care
What is the difference between skilled care and intermediate care?
Skilled care is for those coming from the hospital that are in need of short-term
therapy. Intermediate care is for long-term residents that need nursing care on a
twenty-four hour basis.
Does Grace Village have private rooms?
Yes. We have several private rooms with their own bathrooms.
Can I bring personal belongings?
Yes. Grace Village encourages families to bring personal belongings with
them. This helps to recreate the home-like sentiment that is necessary for
resident’s peace of mind.
Will Medicare or insurance cover any of the cost?
Medicare Part A will cover costs for skilled care. Medicare Part B will cover
therapy for intermediate care. Many insurance policies are simply Medicare supplements
and will not cover intermediate care costs. Insurance policies Vary widely. Please
check with your insurance provider to see if long-term services are covered.
