Watertown – Edgewood Mc concentrates its clinical program on memory care for residents living with moderate dementia. The care team structures daily routines to reduce confusion and anxiety, and licensed nurses oversee individualized service plans that include medication management, health monitoring, and coordination with outside physicians. Cognitive support activities are integrated into the schedule to help maintain remaining abilities and slow further decline, and staff receive ongoing dementia‐specific training to implement these interventions consistently.

Additional medical oversight includes an awake staff on duty throughout the night to address urgent needs and conduct regular safety rounds. Residents who require help with activities of daily living receive some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, delivered according to each person’s care plan. Care conferences are held regularly with families to update goals of care, and electronic recordkeeping helps ensure accurate tracking of vital signs, weight changes, and medication adherence.

Accommodations consist of a selection of private and companion suites designed for easy navigation, with wide doorways, accessible bathrooms, and built-in safety features such as grab bars and emergency call systems. Some apartments include added conveniences like in-unit temperature controls or small kitchenettes, but not every accommodation offers every feature.

Meals are prepared three times daily in a central kitchen and served in a dining room arranged to minimize distractions for residents with cognitive impairment. Menus are reviewed by a dietitian to meet nutritional guidelines and can be modified for soft, pureed, low-sodium, or diabetic requirements. Staff provide cueing or some physical assistance for residents who need help at mealtimes, and snacks are available between meals to support stable caloric intake.

Residents have access to a wellness center for exercise and therapy sessions, facility-wide internet for personal use or telehealth, a small library for quiet reading, and organized special-interest clubs that promote social interaction and cognitive engagement.
