Cedarhurst of Shiloh delivers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living and Memory Care—so residents can receive the support that fits their current needs while remaining in the same community if those needs change. Assisted Living residents get routine help with daily tasks, Independent Living residents retain the freedom to manage their own schedules with minimal oversight, and Memory Care residents benefit from a secure environment designed for the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
Medical oversight is organized around resident safety. The staff is trained to respond to wandering day or night, elopement risk, behavioral changes and “up-all-night” sleep patterns. Nurses monitor diabetics on oral medications, and the community is prepared to care for advanced dementia conditions. A 24-hour team remains on site, reinforced by a pull-cord alert system that routes calls directly to staff. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating and toileting, and caregivers can provide walker guidance, wheelchair mobility, standby support or one-person transfers as needed. An activity director coordinates programs that meet therapeutic objectives in addition to recreation.
Apartment choices can include a private bathroom, kitchenette and cable service, and all residents receive standard housekeeping and scheduled laundry. Not every accommodation has every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific layouts during a tour. Independent Living apartments include routine light housekeeping to simplify daily life while preserving autonomy.
Meals are prepared on site three times a day, with the option to have dishes delivered to the apartment for in-room dining. A private dining room is available for family visits or special events, and menus are developed to meet nutritional guidelines without sacrificing familiar choices. Staff remain available to assist residents who require help with eating.
Amenities round out the practical side of community life. There is on-site resident parking, a barber and beauty shop, communal gardens, a concierge desk, a library and scheduled transportation for errands and medical appointments. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
