Community Services and Amenities

Each resident’s well-being is the priority, so the licensed nursing staff works around the clock to help ensure each need is met. The staff is happy to assist with daily living activities, medication, and other personal needs. They also do their best to make the community as familiar and comfortable as possible through interior design. The community features extra-wide hallways to prevent confusion, shadow boxes outside of each resident’s door to display residents’ personal stories, and historical surprises scattered throughout spaces to help stimulate memories.

The staff understands that memory loss is different for each individual, so they personalize services by listening and learning from each resident. Rather than focusing on what residents are unable to do, staff focus their energy on each resident’s current cognitive and sensory abilities. Using key techniques — gaze, speech, touch, and verticality — they aim to help residents properly engage their abilities. To connect each individual with their memories, the staff help residents connect with nature, express their faith, and feel purposeful. Each day should be filled with joy and contentment, so the community is always growing the activities calendar. The wide range of activities supports this philosophy with activities including music therapy, art expression, personalized exercises, and more.

The community believes that forming connections makes memory loss easier, so the staff does its best to foster an engaging environment. When residents aren’t participating in lively activities, they are encouraged to take advantage of shared spaces. Residents can connect with one another by dining, strolling, or relaxing together. The elegant, restaurant-style dining room serves three nutritious meals daily, which residents can choose to share with loved ones. Additionally, residents can accompany one another in the living room, interior courtyard, garden beds, or the salon and spa.

Living Arrangements

The community currently offers shared and private suites fully furnished with charming antiques and familiar decor. Each suite provides easy access to pull cords and call panels to help ensure resident safety. Additionally, the community is fully equipped with an advanced security system and window sensors to maximize security.
