Exquisite Dining Menu
At Chartier mealtime is not only for nourishment but also an important social occasion. Superior quality dining is a top priority with us. Chartier takes all the steps necessary to ensure that meals are tasteful yet nutritious. We present three delightful meals in addition to healthy and tasty snacks daily. Any modified diets, such as DA enhanced diets will be meticulously followed. Any Nutritional Supplements that are recommended are (such as Ensure Plus) will be served consistently as ordered by the physician.
Entertainment and Activities
Here at Chartier we provide a variety of activities that are designed according to the residents' abilities, including large motor activities and those that address perceptual and sensory stimulation. Residents are encouraged to participate in "real life" activities that promote self esteem such as folding their own clothes, making snacks, gardening, etc. Through out the year we have different guests come in to play music and have sing-alongs for the residents.
Medication Monitoring
Chartier will assist residents with medications ordered by a physician. Written physician's order must be received before a medication may be given to a resident. This includes over the counter medications. All residents have their medications centrally stored for safety purposes.
Pharmacy Services
When it comes to medication refills, we have found it very helpful when doing business with pharmacies that will deliver medications to our home.
Scheduled Transportation
There are several transportation services. We can arrange transportation and escorts for appointments.
Pet Therapy
Our groomed loving and well mannered pets give anyone who would like companionship, unconditional love as well as comfort. Pet therapy has been proven very effective in stimulating memories and responses in residents with memory impairments as well as promoting happiness and longevity.
Daily Housekeeping
Chartier considers this an important and integral part of good quality care.
