On-site Nurse Practitioner 

Little and big medical issues come up on a daily, sometimes moment basis at Sage Living; and as such, living with changing health conditions requires close connection with a skilled provider. Offering an on-site medical provider that can manage these daily issues is vital to residents’ quality of life. From titrating a medication to investigating the causes of a fall, to communication about an acute stroke in progress, a nurse practitioner is equipped to manage it all. Constant communication with residents, their loved ones, and nurse care partners means continuity in care. Nurse practitioner Laura-Lee Berrett, DNP, is devoted to providing daily, comprehensive care for residents within the comfort of their home at Sage Living.

Individualized Physical Therapy 

Our physical therapy programs are tailored to each resident's specific needs, focusing on mobility, strength, and overall physical health. Our experienced therapists work one-on-one with residents to develop customized plans that help improve balance, reduce pain, and increase independence. 

Occupational Therapy 

Occupational therapy services help residents achieve health and fitness goals while assisting with essential daily activities such as dressing, cooking, and bathing. By working closely with residents to understand their unique challenges, our therapists provide targeted interventions that enhance quality of life and promote greater self-sufficiency.

Through therapy, residents can improve their speech clarity, language skills, and ability to communicate effectively, which is vital for maintaining social connections and independence.
