Silver Creek Garland offers licensed Assisted Living with a specific focus on residents who present complex clinical profiles. The community accepts individuals who wander during the day or at night, those with elopement risk, combative or other behavioral issues, and residents who remain awake throughout the night. Care teams are comfortable supporting advanced dementia and related cognitive conditions. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, and an on-call nurse is available 24 hours a day. Overnight staffing is fully awake, allowing for immediate response when residents move about after dark.
The building is equipped with multiple safety layers including background-checked staff, a fenced rear perimeter, door alarms, and Wander Guard technology. Pull cords in apartments connect either directly to 911 or to onsite caregivers, depending on the situation. Residents have access to on-site podiatry services, and the community accepts those with psychiatric diagnoses. Personal-care assistance can be provided at the full-assistance level for bathing, dressing, and toileting, while residents who can eat independently are encouraged to do so. Transfer support accommodates walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, and one-person physical transfers, ensuring that mobility changes do not force an unwanted move.
Apartments vary in layout, and not every unit contains every feature, but options can include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the ability for residents to paint or decorate their rooms. The design allows residents to bring personal furniture and set up spaces that match their routines while still being within reach of staff when help is needed.
Dining follows a flexible approach. A set menu is available at each meal, with an on-order option for those who prefer something different, and snacks are accessible between meals. Specialized diets can be coordinated with the nursing team to align with medical directives. For residents enrolled in the Independent Living program, additional services such as medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and laundry are offered to create a predictable day-to-day rhythm without sacrificing autonomy.
Residents at Silver Creek Garland have access to off-street parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a designated outdoor smoking space, an exercise room, movie room, wellness center, and barber/beauty shop. Internet service is campus-wide, and communal gardens provide an outdoor space for informal activity. On-site religious services are scheduled regularly, and transportation is available for medical appointments and errands, with the community also located near public transit stops.
