    Our team personally reached out and conducted an insightful interview with this community on Nov. 13, 2023. Here's what we learned:

    Types of Living Offered

    Culpepper Garden offers both Independent Living and Assisted Living options for residents.

    Pet Policy

    Residents are allowed to have one pet, with a weight restriction of no more than 20 pounds. There are no specific breed restrictions mentioned.

    Transportation

    While Culpepper Garden does not offer private transportation services, it is conveniently located on the city bus line for residents' transportation needs.

    Moving Assistance

    Residents are responsible for moving their belongings into the community, as Culpepper Garden does not provide moving assistance.

    Staff and Services

    For Independent Living, the staff includes a property manager, accounting, a full maintenance team, and resident services coordinators. Optional services available for purchase include meals from the dining room and housekeeping.

    For Assisted Living, the staff includes RMAs, CNAs, nurses, and dining services. Meals are included, and a resident services person assists with making appointments and other needs. Additionally, a physician, physician assistant, and specialists for podiatry, dermatology, and dental services visit the facility.

    Staff Training

    Staff members are required to complete training and in-services throughout the year in accordance with regulatory guidelines.

    Safety and Security

    Safety features include pull cords in every room. The building is locked after 9 PM, accessible only with a card key or by being buzzed in through the front desk, which is staffed 24/7. Assisted living residents may opt for pendants, although they are not required.

    Check-ins

    In the Assisted Living section, nurses check on residents typically every two hours. There are no routine check-ins for Independent Living as it is designed for those who are more self-sufficient.

    Dining Services

    Three meals a day are offered, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with snacks also available in Assisted Living. The dining service operates with a set menu for the day, and residents can choose items from that menu. Meals can be taken in the dining hall or to go.

    Communication with Families

    Communication with residents' families is conducted through email or phone calls, depending on the nature of the communication, such as billing or other inquiries.

    Handling Complaints

    Residents can voice complaints directly to the administrator, either in person or in writing, thanks to an open door policy.

    Waitlist

    Culpepper Garden has a waitlist for potential residents, with the length varying depending on the type of accommodation and whether the applicant requires limited income program assistance.

    Accessibility

    The facility offers units with different accessibility features, such as walk-in showers or tub shower combos, and the wait times for these units vary.
