Clarks Summit Senior Living provides two levels of residential care: Assisted Living for older adults who need help with daily tasks and a secure Memory Care program for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Both settings include clinical support for diabetes management, on-site speech therapy, and access to a physician for routine or acute needs. Short-term respite stays are available, allowing families to arrange temporary placement while ensuring residents still receive the same medical oversight and daily assistance as long-term occupants.
Additional medical services are delivered by a 24-hour on-site nursing team that handles medication management, incontinence care, and routine wellness checks. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists visit the community, and residents may schedule appointments with an on-site dentist or podiatrist. Hospice care is offered when required, and staff trained in memory support techniques provide specialized programming for cognitive impairment. A visitor sign-in process helps track all guests for security, while ambulatory and mobility assistance are coordinated to reduce fall risk and support safe movement throughout the building.
Apartments vary in size and layout, with choices that can include kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, and views of landscaped outdoor areas. Features such as Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV, air conditioning, and access to a central fireplace or piano lounge are available in many—but not all—units. The pet-friendly policy lets residents bring a small companion animal if the accommodation meets guidelines, and parking is offered for those who still drive. All utilities, including cable television, are bundled into the monthly fee, while telephone and internet packages can be arranged separately.
Meals are prepared three times a day, with an all-day dining option for residents who prefer flexible schedules. The culinary team can accommodate low-sodium, no-sugar, and vegan menus, and keeps beverages and snacks available between meals. Guest meals are offered so family members can dine on-site, and special diets are managed in cooperation with nursing staff to align with each resident’s health plan.
Residents can take part in live music performances, karaoke sessions, and game or movie nights in the activity center or lounge areas. A well-stocked library with computer access supports quiet reading or internet use, while organized fitness programs, yoga and chair yoga classes, and a swimming pool promote physical activity. Social calendars feature happy hours, birthday celebrations, and intergenerational visits, and raised garden beds give residents the chance to spend time outdoors. Regular excursions into the local community provide additional variety and maintain social engagement.
