A SPECIAL NORTH COUNTRY ATMOSPHERE Because we believe that the quality of life is
as important as the quality of care, we have created an atmosphere that's both
comfortable and stimulating - with a distinctive North Country touch. Small
in size, Edgewood has a convenient one-story floor plan with private and
semi-private rooms. Our bedrooms and common areas such as dining rooms and
lounges are tastefully appointed and impeccably maintained. The setting is
peaceful, with beautiful, wheelchair-accessible grounds and patio, with raised
beds for vegetable and flower gardening. Meals
are nutritious and appealing. Our menus are carefully developed by a registered
dietitian, food service supervisor, and the residents and patients themselves.
Attention to detail earned Edgewood an award for outstanding dietary
presentation.
SPECIALTY SERVICES Known for its exceptional service, Edgewood provides, physical and occupational therapy, as well as, speech/language pathology services on both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Individuals who rehabilitate at Edgewood can, with a physician order, continue a consistent program with familiar therapists once they go home. Our most recent change is the inclusion of residential care for those who require security and supervision without the nursing needs traditional for today's nursing home. Our residential care is provided in a comfortable and bright setting.
ENJOYING LIFE Edgewood
offers many opportunities for social relationships. Our stimulating, well-rounded
activities program ranges from current event discussion groups and exercise
classes to barbecues and films. We hold frequent outings in our

enjoy a strong link with the local community. Edgewood welcomes the public to
participate in facility programs such as Halloween festivities, educational
forums and Easter celebrations. Weekly

spiritual needs. Edgewood
also offers optional amenities such as private phone lines, cable television,
