Silver Leaf Assisted Living and Memory Care in Denison, Texas, provides one level of residential care—Assisted Living—but it is equipped to handle a wide spectrum of health needs. The community accepts residents who wander day or night, are at risk for elopement, or present combative or other behavioral challenges. Nurses monitor and treat wounds, manage oxygen therapy, and coordinate special diets. Individuals under 60 are welcome, and diabetic residents can be supported on oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. The team is also trained to manage advanced dementia conditions, ensuring continuity of care as cognition declines.
Clinical oversight is anchored by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call around the clock, and all employees undergo background checks. Medical professionals such as dentists, podiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, and hospice providers rotate on site, supported by services for incontinence, ambulatory needs, medication management, and dedicated memory care. Staff deliver full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to two-person or full Hoyer-lift transfers, accommodating walkers and wheelchairs to reduce fall risk.
Resident accommodations vary and may include a piano or organ for recreation, wheelchair-accessible showers, in-room cable or satellite television, Wi-Fi, and parking. Some suites are pet friendly, and common outdoor areas give residents space to walk or relax in fresh air. Not every room features every amenity, so families should confirm specific needs during a tour.
Dining offers both a set menu and made-to-order options, with snacks available between meals. Special diets prescribed by physicians are prepared on site, supporting residents who require diabetic, low-sodium, or other nutritional adaptations without sacrificing meal choice.
Internet access is available throughout the community, helping residents stay connected with family, telehealth appointments, and online entertainment. Pets are permitted in designated units; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
