Trustwell Living at Shelby Gardens Place offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, including specialized support for advanced dementia. The community accepts residents who wander during the day or night, present elopement risks, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, stay awake overnight, or are under 60 years old with complex needs. Clinical services extend to wound care, oxygen management, and tailored dietary oversight. Diabetic residents benefit from management of oral medications, insulin injections, and sliding-scale protocols, ensuring consistent glucose control.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight is standard. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on site 24 hours a day, with additional nursing support on call. Safety measures include door alarms, WanderGuard technology, pull cords, and personal emergency response systems that connect directly to staff. An activity director coordinates daily programming, and on-site podiatry and a dedicated therapy room reduce the need for external appointments. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff are trained in walker, wheelchair, standby, and one-person transfers.
Residences offer practical features such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, and cable hookups, though not every unit includes every feature. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are standard, helping residents maintain a comfortable living space without added burden.
Dining follows a set menu with snacks always available, and a private dining room can be reserved for family visits. The kitchen team manages multiple diet modifications, including gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans to meet physician orders and resident preferences.
Community amenities include wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, a wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, a library, and an activity room. Scheduled shuttle service is provided for medical appointments. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
