Downriver Estates Senior Living offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to remain in the same community even if their needs change. The clinical team manages oxygen therapy, serves adults under 60 when appropriate, and supports residents who use either oral diabetes medications or insulin injections. Those living with moderate dementia find programming and monitoring designed specifically for cognitive support, and the staff can provide complete assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting when required.
Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on site, with an additional nurse on call around the clock. An awake night-shift team, pull-cord alert system, and 24-hour staffed security help ensure prompt responses in emergencies. On-site services include physician-ordered podiatry, speech, occupational, and physical therapy, as well as hospice coordination and medication management. The community can handle walkers, wheelchairs, standby assistance, one-person transfers, and two-person transfers, giving families confidence that mobility changes can be accommodated without relocation.
Residences are designed for practicality. Some floor plans feature a kitchenette so residents can prepare simple snacks or beverages, while others do not include this amenity. Layouts are arranged to support mobility devices and allow staff unobstructed access for care.
Dining focuses on balanced nutrition with three daily meals plus snacks available throughout the day. Menus are adjusted for physician-ordered diets, texture modifications, and diabetic needs. Staff members are trained to offer full assistance during meals for residents who require help with feeding.
Amenities aim to maintain function and routine. The building is wheelchair accessible, and a wellness center offers spaces for therapy sessions and fitness programming. A dedicated memory-care team leads daily classes, activities, and supervised outings. Transportation is arranged for medical appointments and group excursions, while regular housekeeping and laundry service reduce personal chores. The 24-hour resident care staff remains close at hand for unscheduled needs.
