The Iris Senior Living supports residents who live independently as well as those managing moderate dementia. By concentrating on these two levels of care, the community can tailor daily routines and clinical oversight to match changing cognitive and physical needs, allowing residents to remain in the same setting even if care requirements increase.
Around-the-clock nursing coverage forms the backbone of the community’s medical services. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site at all times, backed by 24-hour security personnel. Medication management is handled in-house, reducing the need for off-site appointments. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating and toileting, and staff can help with transfers that involve walkers, wheelchairs or simple standby supervision.
Apartments and common areas offer practical features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, handicap-friendly layouts, Wi-Fi, cable or satellite television, individual climate control, and available parking. Select areas include a central fireplace, an additional fireplace lounge, or a piano for resident use, and many units are pet-friendly. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation contains every listed feature.
Meals are served from a set menu that can be modified for physician-ordered diets or personal preferences. Staff monitor nutritional intake for residents who need full assistance with eating, ensuring that therapeutic diets are followed without lapses.
Amenities include resident parking, a barber and beauty salon, internet access throughout the building, communal gardens, a 24-hour security system, concierge services, a game room and flat-screen televisions in shared spaces. Pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
