Polar Ridge Senior Living delivers three distinct levels of care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents who need support with daily activities can opt for Assisted Living, while those seeking a maintenance-free lifestyle with access to services when needed can choose Independent Living. For individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias, the dedicated Memory Care program provides structured routines and heightened supervision in a secured setting.
The community is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs. Nursing staff can address wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, diabetic management (oral medications, injections, or sliding scale), and the complex behaviors that may accompany dementia, including wandering at any hour, elopement risk, combativeness, and disruption throughout the night. Advanced dementia conditions are accepted. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, caregivers stay awake through the night, and each employee undergoes background checks. Wander Guard technology further safeguards residents who may attempt to leave the building. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the team is trained to perform safe transfers with walkers or two-person assists.
Accommodations vary, but many apartments offer a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, and cable hookup; not every unit includes every feature, so families should confirm availability. Housekeeping is provided for residents in Independent Living, covering routine cleaning and linen changes to keep suites tidy and comfortable.
Meals are served on a set menu that rotates to reflect seasonal produce and resident preferences, and snacks are available throughout the day. Staff can adapt textures and portion sizes to meet physician-ordered diets, including diabetic, low-sodium, or other specialized plans.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, a movie room, high-speed internet, communal gardens, and regularly scheduled religious services. Transportation is offered for appointments and outings, and the property is close to public transit for added convenience. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
