The Lantern at Morning Pointe Franklin offers a dedicated memory care program designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses and trained caregivers are on duty around the clock, administering medications, coordinating with physicians, and monitoring resident health status. Care plans are reviewed regularly to ensure that interventions remain aligned with changing medical needs, and staff receive ongoing instruction in dementia-specific techniques to help manage behaviors and reduce anxiety.
In addition to clinical oversight, the community incorporates safety measures such as secured entrances, emergency call systems, and continuous visual monitoring of common areas. Structured cognitive exercises, physical therapy coordination, and family education sessions further support residents’ daily routines. The goal is to maintain each person’s highest possible level of function while addressing the progressive nature of memory loss.
Private and companion suites are available, and housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided to keep living areas tidy. Because floor plans and amenity packages vary, not every accommodation includes the same features; prospective residents should confirm specific details during a tour.
Meals are prepared daily, and the kitchen offers an on-order menu so residents can select items that suit their tastes or dietary restrictions. Between meals, snacks are readily available to help maintain consistent nutrition and blood-sugar levels. Specialized meal textures and portion sizes can be arranged for those who need them.
Amenities include the option to have pets live on campus, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. A barber and beauty shop, campus-wide internet access, and the LifeLoop Family Activity Connection tool help residents and families stay informed and engaged. Regularly planned activities, specialized programming tailored to memory care needs, and scheduled transportation for appointments and outings round out the service offerings.
