Scandia Senior Care of Isle focuses on specialized memory-care, providing structured routines and secure living areas designed to help residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia maintain as much independence as possible. Licensed nurses monitor health status, and trained staff administer medications, coordinate physician orders, and carry out individualized diabetes management that includes blood-glucose checks and insulin administration as prescribed.
Beyond direct medical oversight, the community maintains 24-hour staffing, routine safety checks, and prompt response systems in every resident area. Care plans are reviewed regularly with families and physicians to adjust for changing needs, and scheduled transportation is available for off-site appointments to ensure continuity of medical care.
Residential options include private and companion apartments; some accommodate cats, and select units open onto outdoor commons or sit closer to indoor gathering areas. Because floor plans vary, not all accommodations include every feature, so prospective residents should verify availability during a tour.
Meals are prepared on site, and the kitchen can provide no-sugar and low- or no-sodium selections for residents who need or prefer specialized diets. Staff monitor nutritional intake and coordinate with clinical teams to align menus with each resident’s care plan.
Daily life is complemented by organized trivia games, regular on-site activities, and community-wide birthday and holiday parties that encourage social interaction and cognitive engagement without requiring residents to leave the secure environment.
