A dedicated neighborhood for residents living with dementia and memory loss. Our activity-based care model provides a warm, supportive, and secure environment that promotes dignity, engagement, and quality of life.

Focused on rehabilitation and recovery following surgery, illness, injury, or hospitalization. Our interdisciplinary team works collaboratively to help residents regain independence and return to their homes or community settings whenever possible.

Helen Porter's Memory Care and Long-Term Care neighborhoods also feature dedicated end-of-life suites designed to provide comfort, privacy, and support for residents and their loved ones. Through collaboration with UVM Health Network's palliative care teams and our Palliative Support Services program, we provide compassionate care that honors each individual's journey.
