Missoula – Edgewood is structured around dedicated memory care and is equipped to support individuals living with all stages of dementia, including advanced conditions. The care team is trained in evidence-based memory support techniques, and licensed nursing oversight helps manage chronic health issues, medication schedules, and behavioral symptoms common with cognitive decline. Regular assessments guide individualized care plans, ensuring residents receive the appropriate interventions and medical monitoring as needs evolve.

Additional safeguards include an awake staff on every night shift, so assistance is available around the clock. Team members can provide some physical help with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, allowing residents to maintain as much independence as possible while staying safe. Secured areas and controlled entry points reduce the risk of wandering, and on-site emergency response systems connect residents to staff within moments.

Living options range from compact suites to larger one-bedroom apartments, each designed with simple layouts that support orientation and mobility. Features such as private bathrooms, emergency call pendants, and individual climate controls are available in many—but not all—units; prospective residents should confirm specific inclusions during a tour. Weekly housekeeping and routine maintenance are standard across the community.

Dining services offer three daily meals prepared in the community kitchen, with menus adjusted under the guidance of a registered dietitian to meet nutritional guidelines for older adults. Staff can provide hand-over-hand or cueing assistance for those who need help eating, and specialized menus accommodate modified textures, reduced sugar, and other physician-ordered diets. Snacks and hydration stations are available throughout the day.

Residents can use a small on-site wellness center for exercise and therapy sessions, access the internet in common areas, and borrow books or periodicals from the community library. Special-interest clubs give residents structured opportunities to pursue hobbies and socialize according to their preferences.
