By taking the time to truly understand their specific needs, we can ensure that our wellness plans are not only effective but also engaging and enjoyable. Because when it comes to promoting well-being, there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

Our approach is far from one-size-fits-all, as we recognize that each resident has their own set of preferences, goals, and challenges.

Taking care of your personal health and enjoying a vibrant social life are essential for a fulfilling life. Our dedicated team is here to provide residents with the necessary assistance for their daily living needs, including medication support, personal hygiene care, and emotional support.

Medication Management by a Licensed Nurse
Medication is an essential component of any comprehensive wellness plan, as it plays a crucial role in maintaining our health and managing various medical conditions. However, it's important to acknowledge that medications can sometimes lead to unexpected complications or adverse effects.
At The Birches, we prioritize the well-being and safety of our patients above all else. By entrusting medication management to our licensed nursing team members, we aim to provide a seamless and comprehensive healthcare experience.

Your health and peace of mind are our top priorities, and we are dedicated to delivering the highest level of care in all aspects of your wellness journey.
Assisted Living Culinary Services
Food is an essential part of life, and we make it something to savor.
Indulging in a delectable dinner or savoring a glass of wine with your neighbors truly elevates the dining experience.
We take immense pride in our Culinary department's unwavering dedication to curating delightful meal options for our esteemed residents.
Unlike other assisted living, we never stick to a repetitive menu every few weeks, nor do we purchase food in bulk. This allows us to cater to resident food preferences and ensure that mealtimes are always filled with excitement and novelty, with an array of fresh and enticing dishes to explore.
Our talented Culinary team passionately crafts homemade meals three times a day, offering an extensive selection of options for our residents to relish.

Rehabilitation & Therapy Services
At our facility, we understand the vital role that rehabilitation and therapy play in the recovery process for our residents following an illness or injury.
