INDEPENDENT LIVING

WhiteStone is open to everyone. We honor our fraternal heritage and place a high value on loving kindness and service to others.

When you move to WhiteStone, you enjoy several advantages, including:

  • More opportunities. Easy access to activities and amenities gives you the chance to try new things and continue your lifelong passions. You can choose from hundreds of educational and recreational activities, join any number of special interest clubs, attend holiday parties and community barbecues, swim, garden, take exercise and wellness classes, and so much more.
  • More ways to stay involved. At WhiteStone, you’ll meet many wonderful people who share your interests. Plus, you’ll find easy ways to share your time and talents. You can join or lead any number of committees and organizations, or start one of your own.
  • Easier life. Life is easier at WhiteStone because you have quick access to the essentials – from banking services and a hair salon to a convenient shop and business center. What’s more, our staff takes care of the chores, including housekeeping and maintenance, and provides scheduled shuttle service around town.
  • More security. At WhiteStone, you never have to worry about who will take care of you in the future. That’s because we offer a variety of services, from in-home care to skilled nursing, provided by highly trained staff who know and care about you. Of course, that means ultimate peace of mind for you and your family.

A Life Plan Community, also known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), offers a full continuum of care from independent living to assisted living to skilled nursing and memory care. Residents can enjoy an active, independent lifestyle, along with greater peace of mind knowing that, whatever the future holds, their health care needs can be met on campus – often at less than market rates.

Many residents say they wish they’d moved to WhiteStone sooner. They’re surprised at the number of wonderful people they’ve met who’ve become true friends. They no longer have to take care of a house and lawn, so they have more time to take advantage of our many thoughtful activities and amenities. They’ve let go of worries about a future move and relieved their children of having to make decisions on their behalf.

Most important, you cannot predict the future so planning is crucial to make sure you get what you want. With that in mind, consider moving to WhiteStone when you’re able to make the decision for yourself, and before a health problem affects your ability to qualify for residency. WhiteStone residents are also quick to point out that moving when you’re younger makes it easier to acclimate to your new neighborhood and make new friends.

Yes, we love our four-legged friends, and they love our walking trails. There are number and size restrictions, so please review our pet-friendly policy with a residency counselor.

SKILLED NURSING

Skilled nursing is for those who need longer-term care delivered around the clock by licensed professionals, including RNs, LPNs and CNAs.

Potential candidates include those dealing with an ongoing health condition or disability, chronic or severe pain, a chronic medical condition, permanent disability, or dementia.

Short-term skilled nursing is for people who aren’t quite ready to return home after discharge from the hospital. Our interdisciplinary team of nurses and therapists can provide the rehabilitative care you need to recover from surgery, injury or serious illness.

REHABILITATION

No, anyone can receive rehab at our Care and Wellness Center. However, WhiteStone residents enjoy priority access to our rehab services.

We accept Medicare, Medicaid and long-term care insurance. We’ll verify your insurance coverage and explain what’s covered.

MEMORY CARE

Activities are scheduled according to each resident’s abilities. Generally, activities are designed to help people stay engaged with life and to support their physical, mental and spiritual well-being.

Resident rooms are equipped with an emergency call system. Staff is on duty 24/7 to monitor and assist residents any time, day or night. Doors lock automatically to keep residents safe.

Snoezelen therapy is a therapeutic environment that stimulates the senses (hearing, sight, smell, touch) to improve quality of life for people with dementia. It’s been shown to calm aggressive behavior, improve mood and increase awareness.

IN-HOME CARE

At WhiteStone, we offer a continuum of care. Home care services are delivered in your independent living residence. Memory care, long-term skilled nursing care and short-term rehabilitation therapy are provided in our top-rated Care and Wellness Center.

We’re building a brand new assisted living neighborhood with completion scheduled in 2020. Visit our expansion page to learn more.
