The Plaza at Edgemere in Dallas provides both Assisted Living and dedicated Memory Care neighborhoods. Residents with advanced dementia, wandering tendencies, elopement risk, behavioral concerns, or a need to stay up at night can be accommodated. Clinical support covers wound care, oxygen use, and a full range of diabetes management, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale protocols. Special diets are prepared in-house, and staff members monitor adherence.
An RN or LPN is on site, a nurse is on call around the clock, and background-checked, awake night staff respond to pull-cord alerts, door alarms, and WanderGuard systems within a fenced campus. Residents have access to podiatry, audiology, dental services, and a dedicated therapy room without leaving the property. Staff can give full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained for all transfer scenarios—from standby help with a walker to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents.
Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnished living area, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every unit has every feature. Housekeeping, laundry in-unit, or scheduled laundry services are provided. Independent Living residents on the same campus can receive medication-management monitoring, light housekeeping, laundry service, and a monthly meal plan while enjoying the privacy of their own apartments.
Meals are served restaurant-style from a set menu or cooked to order, and diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, and other physician-ordered plans are available. Snacks can be picked up anytime, meals can be delivered to the apartment, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings.
The community is wheelchair accessible and offers resident parking, concierge services, a pool, exercise and wellness centers, a movie room, library, barber and beauty shop, stair glide, on-site religious services, special-interest clubs, and internet access. Residents can spend time in communal gardens, bring a pet, or step outside to designated smoking areas. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Transportation options include scheduled outings, a TowneCar service, and proximity to public transit.
