Grand Brook Memory Care of Greenwood is a dedicated memory-care community equipped to serve residents living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, including advanced stages. The team is experienced in managing residents who wander—morning or evening—are at risk for elopement, or display combative or other challenging behaviors. Clinical support extends to wound care, oxygen management, special diet adherence, and diabetes management whether oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin are required. The community also accepts younger residents under age 60 when memory-care needs are present.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight is provided by RNs and LPNs, with a licensed nurse on-site 24 hours a day. Background-checked staff remain awake throughout the night, and all exterior doors are alarmed; resident rooms include pull-cord systems that alert staff immediately. On-site podiatry and dental visits reduce the need for outside appointments, and the community accepts residents with co-existing psychiatric conditions. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the team can accommodate transfers ranging from stand-by help with a walker to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound individuals.
Residences are designed for comfort and safety, offering features such as private bathrooms, basic furnishings, individual climate controls, and the option for families to paint or decorate the space. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included. Because layouts and inventory vary, not every room contains every feature, so families should confirm specific details during a tour. For those living independently in the property’s separate independent-living setting, medication-management monitoring can be arranged to ensure adherence without sacrificing autonomy.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates regularly, and snacks are available throughout the day. The culinary team supports physician-ordered diet modifications, including gluten-free, mechanical-chopped, puréed, thickened-liquid, and vegetarian options. Staff provide full assistance at mealtimes when needed, making sure residents with swallowing issues or limited dexterity maintain proper nutrition.
Community amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty salon, internet access, landscaped communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge support, special-interest clubs, and scheduled transportation for medical appointments and local outings. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
