As needed assistance is available for various levels of need including personal care, medical and health monitoring, social, recreational and spiritual needs and behavioral support.
Our staff is trained to respond with courteous, competent, and loving care, in a manner that maintains maximum privacy, dignity, choice and respect for resident’s abilities and preferences.

Our staff is committed to pursuing the highest quality of life for our residents. Daily care is provided by dedicated caregivers, with oversight provided by a registered nurse. We offer personalized care to support our resident’s unique needs and preferences.

Our friendly and knowledgeable staff receive regular professional training and continuing education well beyond what’s required for certification or licensing. It’s one of the many ways Rock Cove is committed to delivering exceptional service.
Our assisted living community is well equipped to provide an increasing level of support as may be needed or requested, either in-house or through coordinated efforts with community service providers. From hospitality and personal care services, to health and wellness and specialty care, our range of services enable us to better provide consistent and reliable care across a broad range of needs.
As care needs change, our staff can work together with residents and their families whenever needed to discuss and address any additional service considerations. We may work with a wide range of health professionals including personal physicians, rehabilitation services, social workers, therapists, professionals from hospice and home health, emergency medical, and friends and family to help ensure a well coordinated holistic plan of care is delivered and that residents preferences are honored.
Rock Cove offers an impressive array of activities with something for everyone. Although activity programming can vary based on current resident interests, ice-cream socials, spa days, garden clubs, movie showings, health and speciality clinics, educational classes, inter- generational programs, and special interest groups may be offered to invite social interaction and companionship as well as mental and spiritual enrichment. The grounds are designed with easy to navigate walkways to encourage wandering about in the great outdoors.
