Bay Port of Fort Walton Beach provides Assisted Living in a secured setting. Residents who need temporary support can arrange respite or short-term stays, and those managing diabetes benefit from specialized diabetic care protocols and regular monitoring. Physicians make scheduled visits, and a speech therapist is available for residents with communication or swallowing challenges.
Daily health oversight is strengthened by on-site nurses, physical, occupational and massage therapists, as well as podiatry and optometry services. The community delivers medication management, hospice coordination, incontinence assistance and both ambulatory and non-ambulatory care. Memory care programming is integrated into the building’s layout, which is specifically designed to accommodate memory loss and reduce confusion.
Apartments range from studio layouts with wheelchair-accessible showers to larger units with kitchenettes, balconies or patios. Some residences include bath tubs, ground-floor access or views of landscaped outdoor areas. Cable or satellite TV and individual climate control are available in many units, and the community supports both cats and dogs with optional pet-care services. A library, computer media center, indoor common rooms and outdoor patios give residents multiple spots to gather. Because configurations vary, not every accommodation contains every listed feature.
Dining is offered restaurant-style with a professional chef preparing three daily meals plus all-day and anytime dining options. Residents can choose vegetarian, kosher, gluten-free, low-sodium or no-sugar menus, and specialized meal plans can be arranged as needed. A café, pub and private dining room accommodate casual snacks, social drinks or family gatherings, while room service is available for residents who prefer to dine in their apartments. Guest meals are also offered.
Residents have access to a broad calendar of programs such as art classes, cooking demonstrations, brain-fitness sessions, Wii bowling, yoga, gardening in raised beds and regular fitness classes. The community schedules off-site day trips, wine tastings, live theater performances, intergenerational events, holiday parties and birthday celebrations. Indoor and outdoor walking paths, a swimming pool and a dedicated activity center support daily exercise and social engagement, while devotional services, educational speakers and community service projects address spiritual and intellectual interests.
