Assisted living at Sankofa is designed for the moment in time when an individual needs assistance in daily activities but by no means requires constant medical or nursing care.  We provide a nurturing and protective environment for the individual who needs a watchful care giver but does not have an injury, illness or disability that requires chronic or convalescent care.  The focus of assisted living is to help the resident maintain as much independence as long as possible.  We assist residents, rather than doing for them.  

We are a program that offers personal comfort and independence with the benefit of compassionate, qualified staff who provide the assistance necessary for your individual needs including: monitoring and recording of daily whereabouts, functioning capabilities, assisstance with maintaining medical and therapeutic appointments, supervision and provision of dietary needs, and much more.  Most importantly, we provide a variety of activites that stimulate and nurture the mental, emotional and spiritual needs of our residents.  Learn computer skills, organic gardening, yoga, arts and crafts, cooking, etc. with our various enrichment programs.
