Pope John Paul II Care and Rehabilitation Center

A residential setting in Danbury, CT, is home to the Saint John Paul II Center, a 141-bed rehabilitation, memory care and long-term care community. The spacious grounds surrounded by trees features a water garden and a view of a small lake. A fenced courtyard contains trees and shrubs, flowers, benches and paved paths. 

At Saint John Paul II Center, person-centered assessments and care planning optimize residents’ capabilities and health maintenance. Memory care staff undertake a certified course in dementia care. Physical, occupational and speech therapists and a well-equipped gym help to regain and maintain functional health, and an on-site nurse practitioner sees to health care needs and prescriptions, while 24-hour nursing staff assists with personal daily activities such as dressing, bathing and toileting. Medication reminders and administration is part of nurses’ responsibilities. Physicians are on call, and podiatrists visit regularly. 

The center provides an indoor setting that attracts residents seeking socialization and activities or quiet, contemplative space in addition to the inviting outdoors. A sunroom with views to the garden and comfortable common areas are favorite gathering spots for friends and family. Options for dining include a lovely dining room or in-room meals. A gift shop, housekeeping and laundry, and a chapel are just a few additional amenities.

The best way to get to know a community is by scheduling a tour. See the facilities, meet the staff and residents, and get a feel firsthand what it's like to live at Pope John Paul II Care and Rehabilitation Center.
