We have an Incontinence Management Program where, upon admission, we evaluate each resident, as needed, for bowel and bladder incontinence. If needed, we provide staff directed toileting every 2 hours depending upon individual needs, and we provide personal hygiene care with each bathroom visit.

Bailey Manor has full-time dietary services that provide three nutritious meals daily, as well snacks and drinks throughout the day. All menus are prepared by our Registered Dietician and meet all established nutritional guidelines. We can accommodate food preferences and special diets including thickened liquids, no added salt, no concentrated sweets

We provide nurse practitioner services, and we partner with local home health and hospice companies. All professional services are billed through insurance.

Bailey Manor facilities are fully secured for the safety of all residents, including those with exit seeking behaviors. All exterior doors are locked with keypad entry systems, and the outdoor courtyard is fully enclosed. Residents have the ability to move about the facility freely and safely.

We offer both Day Care and Respite Care for individuals who don’t need full-time care. These services give a bit of relief to caregivers, whether they work, have other responsibilities or just need a day, a weekend or a vacation to recharge their batteries. Each of these programs offers a range of services and is priced reasonably.
