Silverado Sierra Vista is a dedicated Memory Care community designed for older adults living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses are on site, with an RN or LPN available during the day and a nurse on call 24/7 for urgent needs. The clinical team manages medications, accommodates physician-ordered special diets, and oversees meal planning for residents with diabetes who control blood sugar through oral medication. Residents with advanced dementia are accepted, and regular health checks—including on-site podiatry—support ongoing medical stability.
Around-the-clock staffing includes awake night-shift caregivers, an activity director who plans therapeutic programs, and personnel trained in safety protocols verified by background checks. Residents receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the community provides transfer help ranging from standby aid to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound individuals. Security measures such as door alarms, wander-guard systems, and resident call pendants that alert staff help prevent unsafe exits and ensure rapid response to falls or other emergencies. A secured perimeter and 24-hour staff presence further protect residents.
Private and companion suites are available, and some units feature private bathrooms, individual climate controls, and cable hookups. Housekeeping services and scheduled personal laundry are part of the basic package, reducing daily chores for residents and families. Because layouts and amenities vary, families should review specific room features when touring the property.
Meals are served restaurant-style with a daily set menu, but residents may also order alternatives at each sitting. Snacks are accessible throughout the day, and in-room dining is arranged for anyone recovering from illness or simply seeking a quiet meal. The culinary staff collaborates with nurses and dietitians to modify textures, restrict sodium, or adjust carbohydrate counts to match each resident’s medical plan.
Community areas are fully wheelchair accessible and include a barber and beauty shop, fitness room, movie lounge, and reliable internet access. Residents can relax in landscaped communal gardens, attend on-site religious services, or participate in special-interest clubs organized by staff. Scheduled transportation is provided for medical appointments, shopping trips, and planned outings.
