Personal Care Program
At Elm Terrace Gardens, personal care—similar to assisted living—is available in a variety of nicely appointed private suites with full bathrooms and kitchenettes. Attentive staff members treat you with respect and kindness as they provide precisely the help you require—perhaps help getting started in the morning, mobility assistance or medication administration. With three levels of supportive services you can continue to enjoy a self-directed lifestyle, the company of friends, your favorite events and all the hallmarks of life at Elm Terrace Gardens.
