Arden Courts of Bath in Akron is a dedicated memory care community equipped to serve residents with all stages of dementia, including advanced conditions. The team is prepared to manage a wide range of medical needs such as wandering behaviors morning or night, elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, wound care, oxygen use, specialized diets, diabetes care on oral medications, injections, or sliding scale, and support for residents under 60 years old.
Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on-site around the clock, backed by an additional nurse on call 24/7. The building maintains door alarms, pull-cord alert systems, fenced outdoor areas and awake night staff to promote resident safety. Podiatry, audiology, dental services, therapy space and acceptance of psychiatric issues are available in-house, reducing unnecessary trips outside the community. Caregivers can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating and toileting, and are trained for every level of transfer—from standby support to two-person or Hoyer lift assistance for bed-bound residents.
Resident suites can include private bathrooms, furnished basics, cable access and the option to paint or decorate, though not every room offers every feature. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided, keeping living spaces clean and organized without placing demands on residents or their families.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet clinical guidance, and the kitchen staff can accommodate a range of diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed or thickened-liquid plans. Snacks are available throughout the day to help residents maintain consistent nutrition and energy.
Community features include wheelchair-accessible grounds, a wellness center, on-site barber and beauty shop, communal gardens, internet access, scheduled religious services, laundry designed for memory-care needs and proximity to public transportation. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
