Staff uphold each individual’s right to privacy, dignity, self-determination, and are committed to helping individuals achieve their highest level of functioning and quality of life.

Recreational, social, and vocational activities are formulated through resident input. Staff offer support with meals, medication, money management, and hygiene, depending on each resident’s needs and level of independence. Residents are also encouraged to engage in the community and in physical activities.

Greenridge Place and Eagle Rock heights are staffed by a mental health support worker 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In addition, residents have nursing support, an on-site manager, and access to employment and education coaches.
