Bridgewater Memory Care in Granbury, Texas is a secure, memory-care-only community that focuses exclusively on residents living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The program delivers dedicated Memory Care supported by a licensed nurse and a clinical team trained to manage cognitive change. Residents have access to visiting physicians, scheduled doctor appointments, diabetes monitoring, medication management, and hospice coordination. Short-term respite stays are available for families who need temporary support. Regular speech therapy targets communication challenges, while physical and occupational therapists work on mobility and daily living skills.
Additional medical services add depth to the clinical offering. A dentist and podiatrist visit the community, reducing the need for outside appointments. Incontinence and ambulatory care are available around the clock, and the building’s design supports way-finding and reduces confusion for residents with memory loss. The secured perimeter helps prevent wandering, and staff use discreet monitoring rather than intrusive alarms. Every service—from on-site hospice coordination to therapy sessions—is delivered within the same building, limiting transitions that can be difficult for memory-impaired residents.
Private and companion suites are sized to accommodate mobility devices, and many include wheelchair-accessible showers, grab bars, and individually controlled air conditioning. Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV hookups, and access to outdoor sitting areas are common, although not every room contains each feature. Parking is available for visitors, and the shared spaces include a piano or organ for resident use.
Dining follows an all-day schedule so residents can eat when hunger cues appear rather than at fixed times. Three daily meals are prepared with attention to no-sugar, low-sodium, and gluten-free requests, and guest meals are easily arranged. Restaurant-style table service encourages social interaction, while adaptive dinnerware and cueing techniques support residents who need extra assistance.
Residents have access to an activity center that hosts chair yoga, fitness classes, karaoke sessions, live-music events, and birthday celebrations. Indoor and outdoor walking paths, raised garden beds, and a swimming pool give options for safe movement. Staff lead Montessori-inspired, reminiscence, and sensory-based programs aimed at memory stimulation, and a library with computer stations is available for quiet time or small clubs. Scheduled social outings, community clubs, and informal gatherings in the lounge provide further opportunities for engagement.
