Now, there's a new care alternative at Carriage Hill for seniors and their families who need an occasional helping hand. It's called Short Stay Care- the perfect solution for seniors who are being discharged from a hospital or nursing home, but aren't quite ready to go home; or for caregivers who could use a well-earned break.

Short Stay Care residents live in one of our fully furnished apartments with private bath for a few days, a weekend, a month or even longer. During this time, our caring staff attends to their personal needs, from help with activities of daily living to medication management as needed. We also offer a wide range of social activities to help residents stay active and make new friends.
