Is there transportation available to and from medical appointments?

Palagio provides transportation services on a weekly basis for shopping, medical appointments and many other locations within a 10 mile radius. With advanced notice, special arrangements can be made to accommodate other destinations.

Is this a buy-in community?

Palagio is not a “Buy-In” community. We only require a one-time community fee at the time of move-in. Otherwise, we are a month-to-month rental community and the rent is due on the 1st of each month.

Will I have to sign a long lease?

Palagio is a month-to-month rental community. The Executive Director will meet with you to review and sign a Residency Agreement which only requires a written 30- day notice to vacate the community.

How will my loved one be assessed for care needs?

Palagio is a person-centered approach community, which means, our Wellness Director will complete a thorough personal assessment for each resident to determine the services they need in order to provide the care our residents require and deserve.  An individualized service plan will be developed to ensure all care needs are met on a daily basis with the resident’s needs and preferences in mind.

How often can I visit my loved one?

Palagio is your loved one’s home. We encourage you to visit as often as you can, any time of the day or night. Regular visits by family and friends lets your loved one know you care about them and it helps them adjust to their new home. We encourage families to develop relationships with the team at Palagio as well.

What is a Senior Living Community?

A Senior Living Community is a place in which seniors can live, receive care or assistance with the activities of daily living, and grow through activities and socialization. Palagio offers a safe and secure environment where seniors can live an independent lifestyle but also receive support with daily activities, such as, bathing, dressing, medication management, and more.

How is your Community different from a nursing home?

Palagio does not provide advanced, round-the-clock medical care. Nursing homes are designed to assist individuals who have health conditions that require constant monitoring and round-the-clock availability of medical personnel. We cannot accept residents that require skilled nursing care, IV Therapies, and other skilled needs.
