Orangeburg Manor is a dedicated memory care community. Residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia-related conditions receive round-the-clock support that includes structured cognitive programs and respite or short-term stays for families needing temporary coverage. Diabetes management is available, and a speech therapist works with residents who need help maintaining or regaining communication abilities.
The community is fully secured, an important feature for those prone to wandering. Licensed nurses oversee medication management, and on-site professionals provide incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and podiatry services. Suites and common spaces are laid out specifically to reduce confusion and support way-finding, and hospice services are available when needed to allow residents to remain in familiar surroundings.
Apartments are available in several layouts, and all are air-conditioned. Many offer wheelchair-accessible showers, handicap-friendly features, Wi-Fi, and access to a deck, balcony, terrace, or patio, while some open directly to landscaped outdoor areas. Parking is provided for visiting guests or residents who still drive. Not every accommodation includes every feature, so families should confirm individual apartment details during a tour.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef, and residents can eat on their own schedule thanks to all-day dining. The kitchen supports common clinical diets such as gluten-free, low- or no-sodium, and no-sugar menus to align with physician orders. Three daily meals plus snacks are covered in the monthly rate, and staff monitor nutritional intake for residents who require assistance.
On-site amenities help residents stay engaged. The activity center hosts yoga and chair yoga classes, karaoke, live music, and organized clubs. A library and computer lounge support reading and internet access, and indoor and outdoor walking paths encourage safe exercise. Sensory programs, intergenerational visits, birthday celebrations, happy hours, social outings, and swimming pool access round out the calendar, providing multiple ways to maintain physical strength and social connection.
