Montgomery Gardens is an assisted-living community designed to give residents help with everyday activities while maintaining as much independence as possible. Licensed staff members oversee personal care, medication management, and routine health monitoring around the clock. The community can accept short-term or respite stays, an option that allows family caregivers a break or gives prospective residents a trial period. For those managing blood-sugar issues, specific diabetes care protocols are in place, including glucose monitoring and diet coordination with the dining team.
Beyond daily hands-on support, Montgomery Gardens builds an individualized service plan for each resident, reviewing it regularly with family input and physicians. Scheduled transportation is available for outside medical appointments, and on-site staff coordinate with local pharmacies to refill prescriptions. Emergency response systems are installed in resident rooms, and caregivers are trained to respond quickly, reducing the need for hospital visits when possible.
Housing options range from private studios to larger suites, all of which are air-conditioned and include basic utilities. Select units come with wheelchair-accessible showers or other handicap-friendly modifications, and a limited number are pet friendly. Shared common spaces feature a piano for resident use, landscaped outdoor areas, and on-site parking for residents and visitors. Not every accommodation contains every listed feature, so confirming specific details during a tour is recommended.
The dining program provides three daily meals with snacks, and menus can be adjusted for low- or no-sodium preferences as well as no-sugar plans for residents with diabetes. Guests may join a resident for a meal with advance notice, and portion sizes can be modified to meet individual nutritional needs. The kitchen staff coordinates with nursing to ensure diet orders are followed without compromising menu variety.
Residents have access to an activity center for group programs, a library and computer lounge for reading or internet use, and organized social outings to local attractions. Outdoor spaces are open to residents who want fresh air or a walking route, and birthday parties, live music events, and seasonal gatherings are scheduled regularly. A swimming pool is available during supervised hours, providing another option for low-impact exercise and recreation.
