Ripley Crossing Living Areas

Each living area in the Ripley Crossing nursing care facility is a specialized area designed to meet the needs of the unique population there.  Each creates a home for 20 people, with its own dining area, outdoor area, lounge areas and nursing station.  Three of these areas are secured, designed to serve individuals with progressive dementia of the Alzheimer’s type.   The fourth is a general nursing area and the fifth is designed for rehab to home.  Long term residents in the first four wings may receive rehabilitation services as needed while continuing to reside in his or her customary residence.

We believe that people living at Ripley Crossing should have access to life at its fullest.  We often hear that people can once again enjoy a vital life that, prior to moving here, was no longer available to them because of disability.  We want all generations to be happy and comfortable here.  We foster sociability through the design of our building, grounds and programs.  We encourage residents and visitors to access the outdoors.  We have covered porches and an extensive walkway that snakes through the grounds, permitting long wheelchair walks.  Visitors may bring pets so long as we have proof of vaccinations. People may access all areas of the building so that indoor walks may feature varied experiences.  Three of the living areas have kitchens that residents and visitors may use.  Folks reserve the community room for all types of gatherings, from wedding anniversaries to holiday celebrations.
