Whether you’re an assisted living or memory care resident, you’ll receive ongoing assessments from a licensed nurse to track any changes in needs. Even better, these records can easily be shared with your loved ones. Cedar Ridge offers three levels of care. Supportive care involves verbal reminders from a caregiver to complete your activities of daily living, such as bathing or brushing your teeth. These reminders help maintain healthy habits. Assistive care is more moderate, and involves hands-on assistance from a caregiver if ever needed. Comprehensive care is more substantial, and puts the responsibility for completing important tasks in the hands of the caregivers. Caregivers will offer hands-on assistance but will step back if you want to do something on your own.
Memory care residents receive care from a secure area of the community. This area is designed to be soothing for those with memory loss, and includes wide walkways and clear sightlines to important areas. Residents can even make a customized memory box to display, to signal their personal areas. Your loved one will participate in specialized and therapeutic group activities with those who have similar cognitive abilities. Caregivers in memory care have been specially trained by a certified dementia practitioner. Your loved one will also receive weekly visits from a physician and nurse practitioner.
Regardless of the level of care, all residents can receive medication management. A 24-hour staff of caregivers is available to all at the touch of a button, with an emergency pendant program.
