Island Shores offers both Independent Living and specialized support for residents with dementia-related conditions. Medical oversight is anchored by on-site podiatry, dental services, and a dedicated therapy room, ensuring routine and preventive care can be handled without leaving the community. Residents who require help with daily personal needs receive staff assistance for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and those who walk with a cane or walker can count on standby or supervised transfers.
The community maintains background-checked staff, an awake night shift, and an Activity Director who coordinates cognitively engaging programs. A Wander Guard system helps protect residents prone to unsupervised wandering, adding an extra layer of safety for those living with memory loss. Care aides use established protocols to promote resident independence while monitoring health changes that may warrant medical follow-up.
Island Shores provides studio and one-bedroom layouts; some include a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnished selections, independent temperature controls, and the option to paint or decorate the room. Because floor plans vary, not every unit carries all of these features, so prospective residents should confirm specific inclusions during a tour. Housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan are packaged for individuals in Independent Living, reducing daily chores and supporting a maintenance-free lifestyle.
Meals follow a set menu prepared in the community kitchen, with in-room dining available for anyone who prefers privacy or has mobility limitations. The culinary team coordinates with healthcare staff to accommodate dietary restrictions, and portion control is overseen for residents who require it.
Common-area amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible pathways, an exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, and a library. These spaces allow residents to stay physically active, pursue hobbies, and access online resources without leaving the property.
