Vassar-Warner is a 58 bed Adult Care Facility, licensed by the New York State Department of Health to provide Adult Home, Assisted Living, and Respite services. We believe in providing the highest quality of services to our residents, encouraging a healthy, social and independent lifestyle.
Vassar-Warner offers private rooms in a unique historic building, providing all the comforts of home. In addition to adult home care, Vassar-Warner is able to allow residents who may eventually require more services to utilize our Assisted Living Program. Respite is also available for up to 42 days in a calendar year for individuals needing a caring place to stay while the family or caregiver is away.
What We Provide
Our first priority is to sustain the good health, general fitness and independence of our residents. Our staff takes seriously its responsibility to keenly observe and actively meet the changing health needs of our residents.
Areas of Staffing include:
* Administration
* Case Management
* Personal Care
* Dietary
* Housekeeping and Laundry
* Maintenance
* Activities
* Business Office
A full time LPN and part time RN oversee the medical and personal care needs of each resident, and residents have the security of knowing that Home Health Aides are on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Our central location provides quick access to the mid-Hudson Valley's two premier medical facilities, St. Francis Hospital and Vassar Brothers Medical Center - both only ten minutes away.
But wellness is also about prevention and exercise. We offer daily exercise programs including Yoga, Chi Kung, SIPP (Senior Injury Prevention Program), and regularly scheduled walking groups that stroll the historic residential neighborhoods surrounding Vassar-Warner. Vassar-Warner offers a full activity calendar to meet the physical, social, and spiritual needs of our residents
Working with a dietician and diet technician from St. Francis Hospital, our chefs and dietary assistants prepare appealing and nutritious meals to insure residents stay healthy and energized. Guests of our residents are always welcome to enjoy meals and special events in our dining room.
Additional Services
The services of a full-time Case Manager are available to assist with any problems or concerns including applications for Medicare Prescription Drug Plans and Medicaid.
Our housekeepers and in-house laundry service keep our resident's room and clothes spotless (we even iron!) to keep each person looking and feeling their best. We know hair styling is an important part of looking good too, so we provide beauty and barber shop services on the premises.
Also located on site is the "Shoppin' Place" (our own convenience store for residents) as well as an in-house banking service.
