Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of accommodations do we offer?

We have two kinds of accommodations. We have one-room lodge rooms (located in the Cypress View Wing, the Wild Rose Wing, and the 1st and 2nd floors of the Teeoda Wing) and one-bedroom self-contained apartments (located on the 3rd through 6th floors of the Teeoda Wing).

What is the rent?

All rates and fees can be found here.

When can I move in?

There is a waiting list and it is very difficult to give a time frame. The list is compiled based on a 'need rating' that the Foundation assigns to each applicant - the greater the need, the higher you are on the list. Even though you may be the last to apply, it doesn't mean that your name is on the bottom of the waiting list.

Once you have been contacted, you can move in immediately.

What about people with low income?

Our board has made a policy that all lodge residents must have a minimum of $265.00 left over every month after rent is paid. Should a resident not have this, their rent would be adjusted to assure this policy is met.

Apartment rent is based on a percentage of your gross income, so there should always be some funds left over after rent.

Is there any medical assistance?

We are supportive housing, not a nursing home. However, we do employ Personal Care Attendants that assist with medications, dressing, bathing, etc. If a resident is approved for Home Care there is no charge for the service. Otherwise they would be charged. Care Service rates are very competitive.

Also, our lodge rooms are equipped with emergency call systems should a medical emergency occur. We have staff working 24 hours a day and they respond very quickly to calls.

What can you tell me about the Assisted Living Wing?

The assisted living wing will be open in the fall of 2008. There will be nursing staff on site. This will provide an affordable assisted living option for low to moderate income seniors.

Can apartment tenants get meals?

Yes, they can. The rates are located here.
