Assisted

The Home of the Good Shepherd in Saratoga Springs blends skilled nursing care with assisted living services, offering a superior level of care in a warm, home-like setting. Founded in 1870, the non-profit community prioritizes individual care and promotes active involvement in residents' own lives. The Saratoga Springs location, which opened in 2016, continues this tradition by offering Assisted Living and Enhanced Assisted Living options to seniors. Both living arrangements at the Home of the Good Shepherd provide a comfortable, homelike environment with an emphasis on personal care and engagement in the community. Enhanced Assisted Living also includes skilled nursing tasks and nursing assessments, allowing residents to 'age in place,' a concept that encourages seniors to remain in a familiar environment as their care needs change over time.
