High Point Residence Centralia provides dedicated Memory Care programming for residents living with all stages of dementia, including advanced conditions. Care plans account for behaviors such as wandering—whether it occurs mostly in the morning, afternoon, or throughout the night—elopement risk, combativeness, and other challenging behaviors. Licensed nurses manage clinical needs like wound care, oxygen therapy, and specialized diet adherence. Diabetes management is available for residents on oral medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale protocols.
Clinical oversight is reinforced by an on-site RN or LPN, a 24-hour nurse on call, and continuous security staffing. Residents can summon help through in-room pull cords or wearable PERS devices. A visiting podiatrist, access to psychiatric care, and a dedicated therapy room extend medical services without leaving the building. Care staff provide some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while mealtime help is limited to standby supervision. Transfer support accommodates walkers, wheelchairs, supervised stand-by moves, and one-person assists.
Accommodation choices include furnished suites with private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, and cable hookups. Some bathrooms add heat lamps, zero-entry showers, and built-in shower seats to make personal care safer. Residents may paint or decorate their rooms, and housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the monthly package. Not every unit carries every feature, so families should confirm specific details during a tour.
Dining options range from a rotating set menu to on-order selections prepared at each meal. Snacks are available throughout the day, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. The culinary team manages diet modifications that include gluten-free, low-sodium, low-carb, heart-healthy, and “Boost Your Brain” choices, ensuring residents with medical or preference-based requirements receive appropriate meals.
The community’s service package includes resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, wellness center, and high-speed internet. Residents can spend time in communal gardens, an enclosed porch, sunroom, or the activity and game room, and they may join special-interest clubs or attend on-site religious services. A spa with a tub, an additional whirlpool area, and a dedicated spa room provide therapeutic relaxation. Transportation services, including proximity to public transit, simplify travel to appointments or local outings, and a “move-in assist” service is available as needed.
