We connect you to the resources you need, so you and your family can make the best decisions possible. You can feel at ease knowing you are not alone as you navigate your journey to wellness. 
Proper nourishment is a key component of your comprehensive care plan. LIFE St. Joseph of the Pines provides Registered Dietitians to assess each senior's nutritional needs. This includes factors such as risk for disease, any health challenges and accessibility to food. A nutritious breakfast and lunch are provided at the center and home-delivered meals can be arranged, as necessary. 
When daily activities become burdensome, our in-home support can help. Our personal care aides will visit the home as needed and help participants complete tasks like bathing and dressing, meal preparation, laundry and light housekeeping. 
Specialty medical care including dental, podiatry, optometry, and audiology services and supplies is available by our network of medical specialists. Referrals for specialty care must be approved by the Medical Director and interdisciplinary team as being medically necessary.
