Madison Heights Evans focuses exclusively on memory care. Residents receive support from staff trained specifically in dementia and Alzheimer’s techniques, and the community can accept individuals for short-term respite stays. Diabetes monitoring and management are available, and a physician is on call for routine or emergent concerns. Continuous security measures and a fully secured layout help reduce wandering risks inherent to memory loss.
The community supplements its core memory care program with on-site hospice services, skilled nursing, medication management, and incontinence and ambulatory assistance. Residents have access to physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as visits from a podiatrist. The building layout, activity schedule, and staffing ratios are designed to accommodate progressive cognitive decline, and pet-focused programming is offered when appropriate.
Apartments and companion suites include basic housekeeping, wheelchair-accessible showers in select units, and access to landscaped grounds, patios, and garden areas. Some residences offer parking for those who still drive, while others are closer to indoor common spaces for easier navigation. Not every accommodation includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific layouts during a tour.
Daily meals are prepared on site, with entrée options that accommodate standard, kosher-style, and vegetarian preferences. Guest meals can be arranged for visiting family. Nutritional guidelines for memory care and diabetes are followed, and staff monitor intake to help maintain weight and hydration.
Residents can spend free time in the activity center, library and computer lounge, or on the outdoor walking paths. Scheduled programming includes arts and crafts, art classes, yoga, trivia games, reminiscence sessions, sensory-based activities, gardening club, karaoke, and organized social outings. Health and wellness programs and access to a swimming pool round out the choices for physical and cognitive engagement.
