Promenade at University Place in Albany delivers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, ensuring residents with differing needs receive appropriate support. The community accepts individuals who wander during the day or night, are prone to elopement, stay awake overnight, require oxygen, follow special diets, or manage diabetes with either oral medication or injections. Care teams are trained to address the complexities of advanced dementia, so residents facing progressive memory conditions can remain on site rather than transfer as needs grow.
Medical oversight is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff with a nurse on call 24 hours a day. Residents are protected by background-checked employees, an awake night shift, door alarms, fenced outdoor spaces, and pull-cord alert systems. A visiting podiatrist provides on-site foot care. Staff can give full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they accommodate walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, or one-person transfers.
Accommodations vary and may include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, furnishings, independent temperature controls, cable service, and rooms that can be painted or decorated by residents. Because layouts differ, not every unit contains every feature, so families should confirm specific details during a tour.
Dining offers both set menus and made-to-order options, with snacks available throughout the day. The culinary team can modify meals to support physician-ordered diets, including low-sugar, low-salt, or texture-adjusted plans, aligning with the community’s capacity to manage complex medical nutrition requirements.
Residents have access to on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, a movie room, a wellness center, internet connectivity, communal gardens, scheduled transportation, and proximity to public transit.
