The Sugarbush House

At Sugarbush House we see a different way of assisting our elderly members through a new stage in their lives. Acknowledging that where they live is their home and not to the staff, we have established a facility that meets their needs and nourishes their social connections, individual dignity and personal preferences. All of the bedrooms are extremely large some are to be shared. Each bedroom has its own bathroom with colorful tile and amenities. Comfortable chairs for sitting are available around the house. Common areas include an extremely large living room with floor to ceiling windows with a view of the blooming apple orchard. A ceiling-mounted projector T.V. can show their favorite movies. There is a central courtyard located in the middle of the home for even more natural light. The open and airy dining room is located between the sunny courtyard and massive living room with an expansive wooden table for communal dining. In addition, there is a cozy family room off the professional kitchen.

For those needing assistance with their hair grooming needs, there is a salon located in the home with a salon sink, portable dressing chair, and portable hair dryer for residents’ comfort.

Far more devastating than physical illness to our elders is lack of purpose. Studies have shown over and over that seniors who engaged in activities they find meaningful are far more likely to maintain mental acuity, physical health and emotional well-being. Although the hospital model attempts to provide such stimulation, such activities are organized by staff with little input from patients and can become one more set of required tasks for all involved. At The Sugarbush House we work with residents to identify areas of interest and methods of community involvement that will interest them.
