The facility is designed to support seniors who require assistance with daily living while encouraging as much independence as possible. It provides tailored care plans, including help with bathing, dressing, and toileting for those who need full assistance, while supporting residents in self-care to the extent possible. The community is certified by both Medicare and Medicaid and has participated in Medicare since 1994, providing assurance of regulatory compliance and access to broader healthcare resources. Currently, there are 91 residents occupying the facility.
Residents at Alexian Village have access to a broad range of care and medical support services. Nurses are available on-site to assist with medication management and daily health monitoring. Specialty care offerings include incontinence care, diabetes management, pain management, and memory care for residents with cognitive challenges. The facility accepts residents with psychiatric issues and offers therapy services, including occupational, physical, and speech therapy. Additional medical services are available from visiting professionals such as an optometrist, podiatrist, and massage therapist. Resident and family counseling are available to support emotional well-being.

Laundry and dry cleaning services are also provided. Memory care services are tailored for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, with staff trained in supportive, structured care environments.
Resident dining experiences are highlighted as a positive aspect, particularly within independent living. However, reviews from residents and family members suggest variability in care quality, especially in rehabilitation services, where concerns have been raised about staffing levels, timely meal service, food quality, and security of personal belongings. Some reports cite missed medications and inconsistencies in following medical orders. The community setting is described as clean and well-maintained, with gardens and bird sanctuaries providing pleasant gathering places. Staff are frequently noted for their friendliness and professionalism, but critical reviews emphasize areas—particularly in rehabilitation—where improvements in attentiveness and service consistency are needed.
Transportation services at Alexian Village are offered both complimentary and at a cost, covering medical appointments and other personal errands as necessary. This flexible approach allows residents to maintain necessary healthcare appointments and participate in offsite activities or social engagements, supporting both health and lifestyle needs.
