The Glades at Champions Gate provides three levels of residential care—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care—allowing residents to age in place without changing communities. Clinical capabilities include protocols for residents who wander in the morning or evening, elopement prevention, and supervision for those who are awake throughout the night. Nurses manage wound care, administer oxygen, and coordinate special diets. Diabetes support is available for residents on oral medications, injections, or sliding‐scale insulin. The Memory Care program is equipped to serve residents living with advanced dementia, ensuring consistency of care even as cognitive needs progress.

Around-the-clock support comes from an RN or LPN on site, with a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All employees undergo background checks, and night staff stay awake to monitor safety. The building’s doors are alarmed, the rear grounds are fenced, and pendant or pull-cord systems alert staff instantly. The community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses and can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision and walker assistance to one-person wheelchair transfers, so mobility changes can be accommodated without a relocation.

Apartments are offered in multiple floor plans and may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate the space. Weekly housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are included, although not every unit has every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm details during a tour.

Daily meals are prepared by the culinary team and offered on a set menu or made-to-order basis, with snacks available throughout the day and a private dining room for family visits. Diet modifications are managed in coordination with medical directives. Independent Living residents may opt into medication-management monitoring, light housekeeping, personal laundry, and a monthly meal plan that grants flexible dining without committing to every meal.

Residents have access to parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise and wellness rooms, a movie theater, internet access, communal gardens, a heated pool, a bocce ball court, and regular transportation for errands or appointments. Smoking is permitted in designated outdoor areas, and pets are welcome; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
