The Cottages Senior Living is an assisted-living community designed for residents who need consistent, medically oriented support. Staff are prepared to address wandering, elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, night-time wakefulness, wound care, oxygen therapy, and complex diabetic management, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale dosing. Advanced dementia care is a core focus, and residents younger than 60 are accepted when their needs fit the community’s clinical scope.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight is standard, with an RN or LPN on site 24 hours a day and additional nursing support on call. Night shifts remain awake, and pull-cord alert systems connect directly to the care team. The property is fully fenced front and rear, and security staff are present at all times. On-site medical services include memory care programming, incontinence and ambulatory care, medication management, hospice coordination, and regular visits from dentists, podiatrists, physical and occupational therapists. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and they can carry out transfers ranging from standby help to two-person or bed-bound transfers.
Residences are arranged to keep travel distances short and sight lines clear for residents with memory loss. Many units have private bathrooms and cable access, though these features vary by apartment and should be confirmed during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet physician-ordered diets, including carbohydrate-controlled and other special nutritional plans. Snacks are available between meals, and staff are trained to assist residents who need total help with feeding.
Common areas are wheelchair accessible, a barber and beauty shop operates on site, and residents can spend time in secure communal gardens.
