Croatan Village delivers two levels of resident care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—along with respite and short-term stay options for families who need temporary support. A mental wellness program, diabetes management, and ready access to a physician help residents maintain baseline health, while staff trained in dementia techniques focus on safety and engagement for those with cognitive decline. The community’s approach allows residents to step up or down in service intensity without leaving the building.
Clinical support extends well beyond routine monitoring. Licensed nurses are on site up to 16 hours a day, supported by medication management, physical and ambulatory therapy, podiatry visits, hospice coordination, and incontinence services. Suites are equipped with an emergency call system, and the building uses a sprinkler system for fire safety. Memory-care areas feature enclosed courtyards and layouts designed to reduce confusion, while pet-focused programs give animal lovers a familiar source of comfort.
Apartments vary in size and layout; some include kitchenettes, ground-floor access, or wheelchair-accessible showers, while others emphasize simpler floor plans for ease of navigation. All units are air-conditioned, come with basic utilities, cable, and Wi-Fi, and residents can arrange phone service if desired. Indoor common areas, an outdoor garden, landscaped grounds, and resident parking round out the living environment. Not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm unit specifics during a tour.
Dining is available all day, with three scheduled meals and flexible room service for those who prefer to eat privately. Menus incorporate vegetarian, organic, gluten-free, low-sodium, and no-sugar choices, and the culinary team supports physician-ordered diets through special dining programs. Guests may join residents for meals, and healthy snacks are stocked throughout the day to help regulate blood sugar or supplement calorie intake.
Daily life is supported by a calendar that can include clubs, lifelong-learning lectures, on-site art classes, swimming, stretching sessions, and the Forever Fit exercise series. Indoor walking paths, a dedicated activity center, and organized social outings encourage movement and community involvement, while dances, birthday parties, and sensory-based programs add variety.
