Enhanced Assisted Living

Supportive Living in Rochester, NY

What is Enhanced Assisted Living?

An Enhanced Assisted Living Residence (EALR) is an Assisted Living Residence that has an additional certification from the New York State Department of Health that permits assisted living residents to “age in place.” Residents receive a substantially higher level of care than provided in traditional assisted living, bridging the gap between assisted living and a skilled nursing facility. Services may include diabetic management, physical assistance with ambulation and transfers, incontinence management and assistance with other complex medical issues and equipment.

My brothers and I are very happy with the level of care that The Hawthorne at St. John’s Meadows provides our mother. It exceeds our expectations in every way. The Hawthorne is clean and the staff is informed and helpful. Whenever we reach out, they always help us to help our mother. The Hawthorne staff goes above and beyond our expectations of care.

Assisted living seemed to be the best option, but I needed to be sure we could find someplace I could trust. St. John's Meadows has been that place. The apartments are clean, modern, attractive and comfortable. Everyone from the nurses to the home care aides to the dining room staff have been diligent, kind and compassionate. They treat my mother like she is family. Communication is stellar. I have never lost a minute's worth of sleep worrying about how my mother is being cared for at this facility.
