Dover Place provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to remain in one setting even as needs change. The community is equipped to support people who wander during the day or night, are at risk for elopement, live with behavioral challenges, stay awake through the night, or require wound management and oxygen therapy. Specialized oversight is available for residents under 60, those on oral or injectable diabetes regimens—including sliding-scale insulin—and individuals with advanced dementia. Staff can also accommodate physician-ordered special diets, ensuring nutritional plans match medical requirements.
Clinical oversight is reinforced by a licensed nurse on site around the clock, supplemented by an RN/LPN team, awake night staff, and an activity director who tailors engagement to varying cognitive levels. Safety measures include background-checked employees, 24-hour security coverage, alarmed exits, fenced grounds, door and wander-guard systems, pull cords, and in-room PERS units that immediately alert staff. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric conditions. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting; standby supervision for eating; and transfer support ranging from walker and wheelchair help to one-person, two-person, or full Hoyer-lift moves.
Accommodation options vary, with some apartments offering private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual temperature controls, and cable service. Residents may paint or decorate their rooms, allowing personal items and color choices that make the space feel familiar. Not every apartment includes each of these features, so prospective residents should confirm specifics during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates to provide variety while maintaining consistency for those with cognitive impairments. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the culinary team can modify textures, portion sizes, and ingredient profiles to meet diabetic, low-sodium, soft, or other physician-ordered dietary requirements.
Residents have access to on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, wellness center, internet connectivity, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Recreation features include a pool table, and a concierge can help arrange transportation for errands and medical appointments. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
