Silverado Senior Living – Frederick concentrates solely on memory care, making it suitable for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease, advanced dementia, or other cognitive conditions. The community is equipped to manage wandering behaviors both day and night, elopement risks, combative or other challenging behaviors, and sleep pattern disruptions. Clinical staff monitor and manage wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, and multiple levels of diabetic treatment, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale protocols. Younger adults with memory impairment are also accepted.
Around-the-clock nursing coverage includes registered and licensed practical nurses, supported by an awake night shift and an on-site activity director. Background-checked team members respond to pull-cord alerts, and door alarms and fenced outdoor areas help maintain safety. On-site medical services extend to podiatry, dental care, a therapy room, and psychiatric support. The staff can provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they accommodate mobility needs ranging from standby help with a walker to two-person transfers, Hoyer lift use, and fully bed-bound care.
Private and semi-private suites are available, and some include private bathrooms, furnished layouts, independent climate controls, basic cable, and the option to personalize the space with paint or décor. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, but features vary by unit and should be confirmed during a tour.
Dining offers both set menus and made-to-order selections, with snacks available throughout the day and a private dining room for family visits or special occasions. The culinary team supports physician-ordered diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans.
Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, and wheelchair-accessible common spaces. Amenities include a barber and beauty shop, exercise and wellness rooms, a movie theater, library, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge support, special-interest clubs, and scheduled transportation, with the building situated near public transit. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
