Silver Leaf – 2508 Crawford in Denison, Texas operates as both an assisted living residence and a residential care home, giving families two levels of long-term care under one roof. The community is equipped to manage residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, display combative or other behavioral issues, remain awake through the night, or live with advanced dementia conditions. Nurses oversee care for residents with wounds, oxygen requirements, special diets, and complex diabetic regimens including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. Individuals under 60 who need these services can also be accommodated.
Clinical oversight is reinforced by an on-site RN/LPN and door-alarmed security to minimize unsupervised exits. Staff are trained to provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from simple standby with a walker to two-person or full Hoyer lift transfers, ensuring residents with varying physical limitations receive appropriate help. These features combine to create a predictable care environment that can adjust to changing medical or functional needs.
Apartments include basic cable, but not every unit has identical features, so prospective residents should confirm specific layouts and amenities during a tour. Rooms are designed with straightforward accessibility in mind to support residents who use mobility aids or need staff assistance.
Meals follow a set menu that meets standard nutritional guidelines, with an option to order alternate selections when available. Between meals, snacks are provided, and the kitchen accommodates physician-ordered diet modifications or management plans such as low-sodium, diabetic, or texture-modified diets.
Residents have access to community internet and outdoor communal gardens that offer a straightforward space for fresh air and light activity.
