Here, life is shaped by shared meals, familiar routines, meaningful connections, and opportunities to be part of the community. With experienced nursing leadership at its foundation, thoughtful attention to health and well-being is naturally woven into the way we support each person.

A different standard of residential care
Where thoughtful care feels like home.
At Care Smith, experienced nursing leadership brings an attentive, personalized approach to everyday care. We take the time to know each resident—their strengths, preferences, routines, and needs—while supporting their overall health and well-being.
Everyday life creates opportunities to make choices, build life skills, strengthen independence, and form meaningful connections. Each resident is encouraged to grow at their own pace and engage in ways that reflect their individual interests and abilities.

CAREWELL
Comprehensive·Adaptive·Resident-Empowered·WELL-being-centered Living
CareWELL™ is the operational philosophy that shapes every aspect of care at Care Smith, a framework for residents not just to live, but to thrive. It is how we organize meals, mornings, appointments, and conversations.
Emotional
Individualized behavior management grounded in Positive Behavior Support, de-escalation, and trauma-informed communication that honors the person behind the behavior.
Life Skills
Daily routines that invite participation in meal preparation, household tasks, personal care, and community navigation, building confidence at each resident's own pace.
Community
Real connections within Spring Hill: recreational, cultural, religious, and volunteer participation. Belonging is treated as a health outcome, not an optional activity.
Holistic
Nutrition, physical activity, rest, and preventive care embedded into daily life through a dietitian-approved menu and structured environmental wellness practices.
Meet the founder
A vision for care, thoughtfully brought to life.
Suzanne Levy is a doctorally prepared, board-certified Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner. Across 14 years in healthcare she has cared for adults with diverse medical, behavioral and support needs in a wide range of clinical settings.
Her work with adults with developmental disabilities began early, as a Direct Support Professional in a residential group home in Yonkers, New York. There she saw firsthand how compassionate support, meaningful relationships and community inclusion help people build confidence, gain independence and lead fulfilling lives.
Care Smith is the result: a nurse-owned and operated residence dedicated to wellness, inclusion and personal growth, where residents build meaningful connections and pursue lives filled with purpose and possibility.
