Artis Senior Living of Davie is a dedicated memory care community designed for residents living with all stages of dementia, including advanced conditions. The team is experienced in managing wandering behaviors at any time of day, elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, sleep reversal, special diets, and diabetes managed with oral medications. In addition to routine cognitive support, the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses, coordinating care with outside providers as needed. On-site podiatry visits help residents who have mobility or circulation challenges stay as healthy as possible.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight is standard. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site 24 hours a day, with an additional nurse on call after hours. All caregivers are awake overnight, and every employee undergoes background checks before hire. The campus is secured with fencing at the front and rear, door alarms, and pull-cord systems that can alert staff or call 911 directly. Caregivers are trained to provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they can manage transfers that range from supervision for walker users to hands-on, one-person support for wheelchair users.
Private and companion suites are available. Rooms come furnished, and families have the option to paint or decorate so the space feels familiar; not every unit offers every feature, so it is best to confirm during a tour. Cable service is available in select accommodations, and maintenance takes care of repairs and routine upkeep.
Meals are prepared three times daily, with both set menus and made-to-order selections. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the culinary team can handle diet modifications such as low-sugar, low-sodium, or mechanical-soft plans. Independent living residents on the same campus can receive medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and a monthly meal plan if they choose.
Residents have access to a barber and beauty shop, a movie room, a wellness center with internet access, landscaped communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments and errands, and the property is close to public transit stops for those who prefer more flexibility. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
