Magnolia Place of Saxonburg offers three levels of residential care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—so residents can remain in the same community even if their needs change. The team is equipped to work with people who wander in the morning or evening, those at risk for elopement, individuals who may be combative, and residents who stay up throughout the night. Medical support is also available for wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, adults under 60, and all forms of diabetic management, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. Memory Care programming is designed for residents with moderate dementia, combining secure surroundings with specially trained staff and activity plans that help maintain daily routines.

Around-the-clock staffing and security are central to the community’s approach. A licensed nurse is on-site up to 16 hours a day, and caregivers remain in the building 24/7. Pull-cord alert systems in apartments, a wander-guard system, and dedicated security staff provide additional safeguards. Residents have access to medication management, stroke recovery oversight, incontinence care, and ambulatory assistance. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists visit regularly, and a podiatrist and hospice professionals are available as needed. Caregivers can deliver full assistance with bathing, dressing, and eating, offer some hands-on help with toileting, and handle transfers ranging from standby support to two-person lifts for wheelchair users.

Apartments include features such as individual temperature controls and cable service, though residents should verify which layouts include each amenity. Floor plans vary to suit different budgets and preferences, from studio-style rooms to larger private suites. Housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided, and Independent Living residents can request medication-management monitoring and personal laundry service for an additional layer of convenience.

Meals are served from a set menu in a communal dining room that accommodates special diets and the calorie-controlled needs of diabetic residents. Staff members remain on hand to provide full dining assistance for those who need it. Between meals, snacks are always available, and hydration stations help residents maintain proper fluid intake. Independent Living residents can join all mealtimes or choose to prepare light fare in their own kitchenette spaces.

Community amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, a wellness center, on-site religious services, a barber and beauty shop, and reliable internet access for email or video chats. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments and local errands. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
