Everyone Needs a Little Respite

Our respite program is available for a 7 to 60-day stay. When informal caregivers require a leave or if you are recovering from illness, injury or disease, we have a place for you to stay. Due to the short-term and/or acute nature of the service, it is offered as a complete, individualized package including:

• Furnished apartment
• All utilities (except phone)
• Three meals per day
• Housekeeping
• Weekly linen and personal laundry
• Emergency response system
• Group activities
• 24-hour staffing
• Wellness checks
• Initial assessment and monitoring by trained staff
• Assistance with personal cares such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, eating, and mobility
• Medication administration
• Medication set-up
• Nurse supervision and monitoring by trained staff

There is a per-day cost for respite care services; please call for rates. Discharge is anticipated within 60 days, or an assessment by one of our registered nurses is completed to determine current status and make recommendations for appropriate service options. Other skilled services, such as physical therapy, will need to be purchased from the health care provider of your choice.

At Green Lea Senior Living, we offer outpatient therapy and short-stay rehabilitation. Short stay rehabilitation is designed for those individuals who are recovering from a traumatic experience or scheduled surgery. We provide our patients with state-of-the-art rehabilitation services and offer physical, occupational, speech, and a wider array of specialized therapies. With a personalized therapy program that is designed to help each individual to succeed, we can accomplish our goal to get our patients back to where they call home as soon as possible.

Outpatient therapy is a form of treatment that is offered to people who do not need to be in a skilled nursing setting on a continued basis. A number of therapies can be offered on an outpatient basis, including occupational, speech, physical, and post-surgical care. Many patients like this type of treatment because it allows them to receive necessary medical care while staying at home. It also allows the patient to live a relatively normal life, simply setting aside time to attend therapy sessions while working, spending time with family, and socializing with friends.

Our therapeutic equipment works in conjunction with traditional therapy practices to ensure that people succeed when they leave our community. This state-of-the-art equipment was designed for professional athletes but then was tweaked to meet the needs of our senior population. Very few communities have invested in this technology, and we have found it to not only help speed the recovery of our patients, but it is a great non-pharmacological, non-invasive form of pain management.

Physical Therapy
Physical therapy (PT) works to improve and promote optimal physical mobility. Often, treatment consists of exercise to improve strength, mobility training to improve transfer and walking skills, and balance training to minimize fall risks. Services can also include modalities to assist with healing and pain relief such as ultrasound, hot/cold packs, and electrical stimulation.

Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapy (OT) works to improve and promote optimal activities of daily living (ADLs). Often, treatment consists of exercises to improve strength, ADL training to improve dressing, feeding, and hygiene skills, and cognitive training to improve safety awareness. Services can also include obtaining, applying, and training on positioning and adaptive equipment.

Speech Therapy
Speech Therapy (ST) works to improve and promote optimal swallowing and communication skills. Treatment consists of assessing for and making appropriate diet recommendations, exercises to increase oral motor and swallow strength, and speech and communication training.

Green Lea Senior Living partners with physicians to provide on-site primary care. This is an approach where primary care providers, families, and patients work in partnership to improve health outcomes and quality of life for individuals with acute illnesses and chronic health conditions or disabilities. This team approach to care gives you access to all the services and support you needed while offering the comfort and convenience of staying in your own home.

Hospice is a philosophy that focuses on individualized care, quality of life, and comfort for individuals living with advanced illnesses. Green Lea Senior Living strives to provide superior care through the end stages of life by partnering with hospice agencies across our organization. Because of these partnerships, our staff is able to provide support to our resident and their loved ones under the guidance of hospice agencies. Green Lea Senior Living is committed to providing hospice care to our residents in the comfort and convenience of their own homes with familiar faces caring for them along their journey.

How Do I Know The Right Option?

Independent Living

If the answer is yes to any of the questions above, Independent Living is the best option for you.

Assisted Living

It’s not always easy to tell when you or a loved one needs more help. The following warning signs may indicate that it’s time for a talk about assisted living.

Long Term Care

Skilled nursing communities take the worry and stress out of daily living while focusing on the needs of the whole person. The following questions can help determine if a long term care setting is right for you:

• Did you have an accident that prevents you from living independently?
• Were you recently hospitalized and need additional care?
• Does your loved one wear the same clothes over and over again or neglect personal hygiene? This can indicate that doing laundry and bathing is physically challenging.
• Do you find the house and yard isn’t as clean and tidy as it used to be?
• Is the primary caregiver having trouble meeting the needs of their loved one?
• Do you have a serious medical condition that requires 24-hour care?
