Overview of Staff and Training

All associates undergo training required by the Department of Health and our company, Kisco Senior Living, including “Virtual Dementia Training (VDT).” Training is mandatory at the initial start date and continues throughout the year. Our clinical team consists of registered nurses and certified nursing assistants.

Safety and Well-being Measures

We have comprehensive measures to ensure the safety and well-being of our residents. Apartments are senior-friendly with emergency pull cords, walk-in showers, grab bars, and an emergency pendant. The main entrance is locked 24/7, and we have overnight security. For memory care, we offer a secure environment with bed alarms and a fenced garden. We conduct regular safety drills and have plans for natural disasters and infectious disease outbreaks. Personalized care plans are provided for each resident, covering medication management, escorting, and daily living activities. COVID-19 measures include surveillance testing and vaccine clinics.

Transition Support Services

We offer support through resident ambassadors, Helen and Amy, who introduce new residents to the community and facilitate social connections. New residents can also host a complimentary “Housewarming” party.

Transportation Services

Transportation for personal or medical needs is included in the monthly rent, with a 24-hour scheduling notice required. We offer a shuttle, mini-van, and sedan.

Dining Experience

Our dining experience features all-day dining, no assigned seating, and a daily changing menu. We cater to all dietary needs and preferences, ensuring a high-quality dining experience for our residents.

Addressing Complaints and Issues

Our Resident Relations Director (RRD), Valerie, is the main point of contact for addressing any complaints or issues, with monthly town hall meetings also providing a platform for discussion.

Cost of Living

The monthly cost varies based on the apartment chosen and care level needed. Our pricing includes all meals, transportation, housekeeping, utilities, activities, and emergency nurse response system. Studio apartments range from $8100-$8450/month, and 1-bedrooms from $9500-$9900/month, with additional care level fees as applicable.

Communication with Residents' Families

We maintain open communication with families through the Google app, providing updates on residents' activities and well-being. Virtual visits are facilitated via community tablets.

Short-term or Respite Stays

We do not offer short-term or respite stays due to high occupancy and a waitlist. However, we offer a 60-day guarantee for new residents to try our community.

Pet-Friendly Community

Residents are allowed up to 2 pets per apartment.

Vaccination Clinics

We offer vaccine clinics for flu, COVID-19, shingles, pneumonia, and RSV to ensure residents have easy access to vaccinations.
