Samaritan Senior Village in Watertown, New York offers assisted living and skilled nursing care in a continuum-of-care setting with 120 assisted living beds and 168 nursing home beds.
The community provides enhanced assisted living with an emphasis on aging in place, allowing residents to receive additional services as needed while remaining in their residence. Skilled nursing care is available 24 hours a day with nursing staff on duty to assist with activities of daily living, physical, occupational, and speech therapy services, and physician-supervised care.
The facility is designed around resident-centered care that prioritizes individual needs, habits, and preferences. Key design features include residential-style dining rooms for small groups, softer materials such as carpeting and wood railings, flexible food service prepared on residents' schedules, multiple smaller common rooms for various activities, and private resident rooms. Services are brought to residents rather than requiring them to travel to different areas of the facility.
Medicaid covers costs for the 168 skilled nursing beds and 80 of the assisted living beds, while 20 enhanced assisted living beds and 20 additional assisted living beds are private pay only. Long-term care insurance coverage depends on individual policies.
There are no formal visitation hours, and residents may receive visitors at any time they choose. The community encourages prospective residents and their families to contact them directly to learn more about residency options.
