“I moved my parents into Parkwood’s Assisted Living wing two months ago. Dad was frail on Hospice and losing weight & Mom has Alzheimer’s. The staff at Parkwood couldn’t be more friendly and attentive to my parent’s needs. Dad has gained 3 pounds since moving in and his doctors and nurses all agree that moving to Parkwood was the right decision. Both Mom and Dad are very happy and content here, and that makes me happy.” – Daughter of Residents

Eliminating the Challenges of Those Frequent, Inconvenient Doctor Visits
At Parkwood Healthcare, we understand the hassle of visiting a physician to manage chronic health conditions. Rather than waiting in a physician waiting room, our senior assisted living residents enjoy the benefit of having a primary care physician** on-site who visits them in the comfort of their apartment. Dr. Benham, our medical director, is a primary care physician who is on-site three days a week to visit directly with assisted living residents. When he is not on-site, one of his nurse practitioners are available for continuity of care.
So gone are the days of scheduling doctor appointments, transporting your loved, educating staff on medications, running records down, and so on. Residents benefit from a holistic approach that reduces or minimizes the burden on the family.
As people age, their health conditions tend to worsen or in some cases multiply. Having frequent access to on-site physician care may improve their health and provide for a positive impact on their quality of life. The team at Parkwood Healthcare is dedicated to keeping our senior assisted living residents healthy and out of the hospital. We want them with us enjoying the active social life and freedom of assisted living in Bedford. By offering healthcare in-house, we can manage chronic health conditions and work to prevent hospitalization.
When it is time to support your loved one with a higher level of medication management, Parkwood Healthcare can help. Unlike other assisted living facilities in Bedford who rely on external providers to manage residents’ medication needs or only provide prompting to remind a resident to take his/her medication, Parkwood Healthcare has a nurse or certified medication aid available seven days a week who can administer prescriptions***.
But we don’t stop there. We understand the hassle of keeping up with refills and making sure that your loved one has their prescription available. We can coordinate with the resident’s physician and work with our pharmacy partners to ensure we have the prescription(s) refilled, always delivered and on-hand. We keep medications locked up in the medication cart and dispense at the designated time of day. This helps prevent overdose or missed doses.
For complex needs like diabetes that require insulin injections, our staff is able to provide enhanced assisted living residents insulin injections.
