Villas of Holly Brook & Reflections – Harrisburg specializes in memory-care services for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The community maintains 24-hour staffing by caregivers trained in dementia protocols, giving residents consistent supervision and assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. A licensed nurse oversees individualized care plans, monitors changes in condition, and coordinates with outside physicians, pharmacies, and hospitals when needed. Secured areas and monitored entry points reduce elopement risks, while an emergency call system in resident rooms enables prompt response to any medical event.
Supplemental care features include on-site therapy services arranged through outside providers, regular cognitive and mobility assessments, and scheduled transportation to local medical appointments. Staff track vital signs and manage prescription refills to help reduce hospital readmissions. Routine wellness checks, fall-prevention programs, and carefully structured daily activities promote mental engagement and physical stability. Families receive regular updates and care-plan reviews, supporting clear communication and timely adjustments to a resident’s care regimen.
Living accommodations consist of studio and one-bedroom suites designed for accessibility, with step-in showers, grab bars, and emergency pull cords; some units add kitchenettes or patio access. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, basic maintenance, and utilities aside from personal telephone are included. Cable television, Wi-Fi, and individual climate controls are available in many, though not all, apartments. Furnishings can be provided, or residents may bring familiar items from home, and limited secure storage is offered for seasonal belongings, though availability varies by unit size.
The culinary program provides three daily meals served restaurant-style in a communal dining room, with snacks and beverages available throughout the day. Menus are planned by a dietitian to accommodate diabetic, low-sodium, and other physician-ordered diets, and puréed or mechanical-soft textures are prepared when required. Residents who prefer to dine in their rooms may request tray service, while special-occasion meals and family-style holiday gatherings occur throughout the year. A hydration cart circulates between meals to encourage fluid intake and help reduce urinary-tract infections and other dehydration-related issues.
