Arbor Ridge at Huntersville offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care in one setting, allowing residents to move between levels of support without relocating. Clinical capabilities include oversight for residents who wander day or night, elopement precautions, supervision for those who are up all night, wound care, oxygen management, and specialized menus for restrictive or therapeutic diets. The staff is trained to care for adults under 60 as well as older adults, and they monitor residents who manage diabetes with oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. The Memory Care program accepts residents with advanced dementia and provides the structure and safety measures required for those conditions.
Round-the-clock licensed nurses supplement a staff that has passed comprehensive background checks. An awake night shift, a personal emergency response system that alerts staff, and 24-hour security are in place. An activity director coordinates daily programming while RNs or LPNs handle incontinence and ambulatory care on site, reducing the need for outside appointments. Direct care aides can deliver full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walker users to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents.
Residences vary in layout, and not all have the same features. Many units include a private bathroom, individual climate controls, cable access, and the option for residents to paint or decorate their space. Independent Living apartments are available for those wanting maximum privacy with access to community services, and basic utilities are included.
Three daily meals plus snacks are prepared with the ability to honor physician-ordered diets, carbohydrate-controlled menus for diabetics, and other modifications. Independent Living residents may choose a monthly meal plan that fits their schedule. They can also receive medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and laundry service, allowing them to remain autonomous without sacrificing safety.
Community amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a wellness center, exercise room, movie room, barber/beauty shop, and high-speed internet. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments and local shopping. On-site religious services are offered, and pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
