Golden Living Center–Sycamore Village is a dedicated Memory Care community equipped to manage residents at every stage of cognitive decline, including advanced dementia. The team is prepared to address behaviors such as wandering, elopement risk, combativeness, nighttime wakefulness, and other behavioral challenges. Clinical oversight covers wound care, oxygen therapy, and specialized diets. Diabetic residents receive individualized protocols, whether they use oral medications, injections, or a sliding‐scale regimen. The center also accepts residents under 60 who need memory care services.
Around-the-clock clinical coverage includes an RN or LPN on every shift, with an awake night staff and a 24-hour security presence. Background-checked caregivers deliver full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while residents who can self-feed receive appropriate support. Transfer capabilities range from standby help with a walker to full Hoyer lift and bed-bound care. On-site medical providers cover podiatry, audiology, dental needs, and psychiatric services, and a therapy room is available for rehab. Safety measures include fenced outdoor areas, alarmed doors, and in-room pull cords that alert staff.
Residences offer private bathrooms, furniture, individual climate controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every room includes every feature. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are standard. Residents may choose from floor plans designed to accommodate wheelchairs and other mobility devices.
Meals are available from a set menu or cooked to order, with snacks offered throughout the day. The kitchen handles diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical chop, puréed meals, and thickened liquids. Registered dietitians coordinate with nursing staff to align nutritional plans with medical orders.
Community amenities include resident parking, a fully wheelchair-accessible layout, an on-site barber and beauty shop, internet access, and regular religious services. Transportation is arranged for medical appointments and community outings.
