North Woods Village in Kokomo is a dedicated Memory Care community equipped to manage all stages of dementia, including advanced conditions. The nursing team provides targeted oversight for residents who wander at any time of day, have a history of elopement, display combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake through the night, or require specialized medical observation such as wound care, oxygen therapy, complex dietary management, or diabetes care—whether oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin are needed. Residents under 60 can also be accommodated when memory support is appropriate.
The facility maintains an RN or LPN on every shift, with an awake nurse present 24/7. Background-checked staff operate within a secured environment that includes door alarms, fenced outdoor areas, wander-guard technology, pull cords, and personal emergency response systems. On-site services extend to podiatry, audiology, dental care, and a therapy room, and the community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, and toileting, while dining support is provided for those able to feed themselves. Transfer capabilities range from standby help to two-person or full Hoyer lift transfers, and the team is prepared to care for individuals who are bed-bound.
Resident suites vary but may include a private bathroom, basic furnishings, independent climate controls, cable access, and the option to paint or decorate the space. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided for all apartments, though not every unit contains every listed feature.
Meals follow a set menu with accommodations for gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid diets. Snacks are always on hand, and room service is available when a resident is unable to dine in the common areas or when medical guidance calls for in-room dining.
On the services side, residents have access to an exercise room, barber and beauty shop, communal gardens, internet connectivity, special-interest clubs, and on-site religious services. Concierge assistance can arrange scheduled transportation for appointments, shopping, or local outings, and resident parking is available for those who retain a vehicle.
