Our Services

Available Services
Waterford Senior Living provides quality supportive, nursing and personal assistance when needed in an environment that promotes dignity and independence. Each resident can choose services and amenities on an as-needed basis creating a personalized care plan that goes above and beyond what is already included in the monthly rent. Some of the available services from which residents can choose include but are not limited to;

• Personal Services, or Activities of Daily Living, available are assistance with; showering, dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, transferring or toileting.
• Nursing Services available are; medication management, diabetic monitoring, health assessment/monitoring or skin care. The staff is able to provide some nursing services under the supervision and training of our nurse and we also utilize outside service providers to perform more higher level nursing care if needed.
• Supportive Services available are; escorting to/from meals and activities, arranging transportation or appointments, or assistance with personal laundry.
• Unscheduled Care Services are services that the timing can not be predicated but is not necessarily emergency care, such as incontinent care or extra assistance when ill.

Respite Care Services
Sometimes a temporary condition or situation creates the need for respite care, i.e. support during illness, recovery from surgery, etc. At other times, a family providing support for an older adult may need to have a break from the day to day commitment to give them "time off" or to go on vacation.

Waterford Senior Living can provide temporary placement for respite residents. Respite services are provided at a daily rate. The daily rate covers everything included in the monthly service rate (meals, housekeeping, activities, etc.), the apartment is fully furnished and up to 28 hours of personalized care each week.

Incontinence Support
Quality incontinence products at a bulk rate can be ordered for you, stored in your apartment and reordered when necessary by the staff. We can assist residents with incontinence (product use, proper cleaning after an accident, and disposal) as needed or on a scheduled basis. Incontinence with lack of proper hygiene after an accident can cause serious health problems (urinary infections, skin breakdown, open sores, etc.) that can be avoided.

• Home Health: Home health companies can perform higher levels of nursing care that come right to the resident in their apartment so a resident does not have to stay in the hospital. Most services are covered through Medicare or insurance.
• Hospice Care: Hospice agencies help provide extra nursing, supportive and personal cares to compliment WSL's services so that a resident may be able to stay at WSL. Most services are covered by Medicare.
• Labs/Blood Draws: A laboratory comes right to WSL and performs the prescribed labs (blood draws, urine, fecal, etc.) ordered by the resident's doctor in the privacy of the resident's apartment. The results are directly sent to the doctor for review.

We complete a full assessment prior to admission to assess the resident's service needs and wants. We only provide the services that the resident and family feel that are necessary and only charge for the services that are provided. We want each resident to live and flourish to their maximum ability to maintain their independence. The customized service package determines the monthly rate.
