The Arbors at Adams Pointe in Quincy, IL is dedicated exclusively to memory care, providing a secure setting for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses are on site around the clock to oversee medication management, monitor chronic conditions, and coordinate with each resident’s personal physicians. Cognitive assessments are performed regularly, and individualized care plans are updated as needs change. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy services are available through on-site or visiting clinicians, ensuring that residents have access to restorative care without leaving the community.
Daily living assistance is tailored to each resident’s abilities, covering bathing, dressing, mobility, and continence care as needed. The community uses a secured perimeter, keypad-protected doors, and monitored common areas to help minimize wandering risks. Staff receive ongoing training in dementia-specific communication and behavior management techniques, allowing them to redirect agitation and support residents through the course of the day. An emergency call system is integrated into every apartment, and caregivers are trained to respond promptly to urgent medical or behavioral situations. Short-term respite stays and coordination with hospice providers are available when required.
Apartments are offered in a selection of private and companion layouts, featuring ensuite or easily accessible bathrooms fitted with grab bars, step-in showers, and emergency pull cords. Most suites include individual climate control, cable hookups, and basic kitchenettes, while housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided. Some units add features such as walk-in closets or patio access, but not all accommodations include every feature mentioned. Families can furnish the spaces to create a comfortable, familiar environment tailored to their loved one’s preferences.
Residents receive three daily meals served restaurant-style in a communal dining room designed to reduce distractions and support focus at mealtimes. Menus are planned by a registered dietitian, and texture-modified options are prepared for those with swallowing difficulties. Caregivers offer discreet assistance and use adaptive utensils when needed to encourage independence. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day, and special diets such as low-sodium or diabetic plans can be accommodated. A private dining area is available for family celebrations, and most apartments without kitchenettes are equipped with mini-refrigerators so residents can keep favorite snacks on hand.
