Savoy Place Memory Care is dedicated exclusively to residents who need memory care, offering round-the-clock support designed for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses are on site 24/7 to handle medication administration, health assessments, and coordination with doctors. Care staff trained in dementia techniques monitor behavior changes, manage chronic conditions, and implement individualized care plans that can be adjusted quickly if a resident’s medical status shifts. On-site pharmacy coordination, lab draws, and scheduled visits from physical, occupational, and speech therapists further support residents’ medical needs without requiring them to leave the community.
Beyond direct medical services, the community provides assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and continence management. A structured calendar of cognitive programs, reminiscence therapy sessions, and small-group activities is designed to maintain engagement while respecting each resident’s abilities. Secured outdoor and indoor areas allow residents to move about safely, and a wander-management system alerts staff if someone attempts to leave designated zones. Transportation to outside medical appointments is available, and family members receive routine updates on health status and care plan changes.
Accommodations include private and companion suites equipped with emergency call systems, individual climate controls, and accessible bathrooms; select units offer kitchenettes, extra storage, or patio access. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are standard, and laundry assistance is available. Furnished and unfurnished layouts let residents bring personal items to create a familiar environment, although not all accommodations have all the listed features. Pets are allowed in certain units; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Residents receive three chef-prepared meals each day served in a central dining room, with menus reviewed by a registered dietitian to meet nutritional guidelines and accommodate doctor-ordered restrictions such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical-soft diets. Staff provide cueing or hand-over-hand assistance for those who need help eating, and snacks are available around the clock. For residents who have difficulty tolerating group settings, meals can be served in their rooms. Regular hydration rounds and monitoring of weight changes help ensure adequate intake and allow the care team to address issues promptly.
