The Cottages of Lochsa Falls is dedicated to memory care, supporting residents who live with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses oversee care plans and are on call around the clock, while caregivers provide continuous supervision and manage medications as ordered by each resident’s physician. The community maintains a secured setting designed to minimize wandering risk and has an emergency call system that routes alerts directly to staff. Regular cognitive assessments, coordination with outside medical providers, pharmacy services, and on-site wellness checks help residents receive timely interventions and keep families informed about changes in health status.

Beyond clinically focused services, the team assists with everyday needs such as bathing, grooming, dressing, continence management, and mobility. Staff members are trained in dementia-specific communication techniques to reduce anxiety and encourage participation in daily routines. Residents have scheduled transportation to medical appointments, and visiting rehabilitation therapists can deliver physical, occupational, or speech therapy as prescribed. Structured small-group activities are planned to maintain cognitive function and create predictable daily rhythms, and a secure outdoor area lets residents enjoy fresh air under supervision.

Accommodations include private and companion suites designed for ease of navigation, with wide doorways, accessible bathrooms, individual climate controls, and emergency pull cords or pendants. Some suites feature kitchenettes, extra storage, or patio access, and housekeeping and personal laundry services are provided. Not all accommodations have every listed feature, so families are encouraged to review the available floor plans during a tour to confirm specific details.

Residents take their meals in a central dining room where staff serve three chef-prepared meals each day along with snacks. Menus are developed to meet nutritional guidelines for older adults, and the kitchen can adapt recipes for diabetic, low-sodium, heart-healthy, and texture-modified diets. Caregivers monitor food and fluid intake for residents who need assistance or reminders to eat. Mealtime is scheduled but flexible enough to accommodate medical appointments or therapeutic activities, and family members are welcome to join their loved ones for special occasions or routine visits.
