Gracious Senior Living in Monroe, NC provides three levels of care—Assisted Living, Residential Care Home, and Memory Care—allowing residents to remain on the same campus even as needs change. The community accepts residents who wander during the day or night, accommodates special diets, and manages diabetes whether controlled by oral medications or insulin injections. Staff are trained to support moderate dementia, ensuring continuity of care for cognitive conditions that require close monitoring.
An RN or LPN is on staff, an awake night shift is in place, doors are alarmed, and pull cords alert caregivers, creating a firmly supervised setting. The team can give full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they handle transfers ranging from standby help to one-person lifts for walkers and wheelchairs. These measures are intended to reduce risks and maintain resident safety at all hours.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and many come furnished, include cable service, and receive regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry; however, not every unit has every feature, so families should verify room specifics during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu and are served three times daily, with snacks always on hand. The kitchen staff can modify textures to mechanical-chop, purée, or thickened-liquid consistency and will adjust recipes to meet physician-ordered diet plans, helping residents with swallowing concerns or dietary restrictions maintain adequate nutrition.
Residents have access to wheelchair-friendly common areas, internet service for personal devices, and maintained communal gardens for outdoor time. Transportation is provided for medical appointments through the community shuttle to simplify off-site healthcare visits.
