The Home is located in a bucolic
suburb north of New York City (about 20 minutes from the heart
of Manhattan) and the three-level
building encompasses: private and semi-private bedrooms accommodating
almost 60 senior citizens; a magnificent chapel which comfortably
seats 70 people; a beautiful dining room with french doors
leading onto a patio; a modern medical room; a spacious social/recreation
hall; a beauty salon; an arts and crafts room and other accommodations
needed for the quality care of residents. Three balanced meals
(and two snacks) are provided as well as all furnishings (twin
size bed, free-standing closet, four drawer dresser, night
stand, lamp) and linens and towels. All rooms are equipped with
a "call
button" should a resident need immediate assistance, and
the facility contains a state-of-the-art WanderGuard system which
alerts the staff should any "unauthorized" resident
exit the facility.
St. Michael's strives to maintain the independence and dignity
of its residents who may have reduced powers of mobility or of
mental awareness. All able residents have complete freedom to
come and go as they please and the Home encourages all residents
to maintain their normal relationships with family and friends.
