Avalon Memory Care – Keller provides a single level of care—memory care—tailored for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease, other dementias, and related cognitive challenges. The team is trained to manage complex medical needs common to this population, including residents who wander during the day or night, attempt elopement, exhibit behavioral issues, require oxygen therapy, or have diabetes managed by oral medication or insulin injections. Staff can also support advanced dementia conditions that call for close monitoring and frequent redirection. Licensed nurses oversee medication management and coordinate on-site visits from occupational and physical therapists as well as a dentist, podiatrist, and hospice professionals when appropriate.
The community maintains 24-hour awake staffing, completes background checks on all employees, and secures the building with door alarms, a fenced rear area, and continuous security rounds. Assistance is available for every activity of daily living—bathing, grooming, dressing, eating, toileting, ambulation—and the care team can safely perform standby, one-person, two-person, and bed-bound transfers using walkers or wheelchairs. Incontinence care, ambulatory care, and a structured memory-focused activity program run by an activity director are standard. The layout is specifically designed to minimize confusion and includes an enclosed courtyard so residents can spend time outdoors without risk of wandering off.
Residents live in private or shared suites; some rooms include a private bathroom, individual climate controls, and basic cable service, although these features are not present in every accommodation. Families can choose the room configuration that best meets their loved one’s needs and budget, knowing that any option provides close proximity to caregivers and easy access to common areas.
Meals are served on a set menu that emphasizes familiar, easy-to-eat dishes aimed at maintaining weight and hydration for people with cognitive impairment. The culinary staff offers texture adjustments, sugar-controlled options for diabetic residents, and other physician-ordered diet modifications. Snacks are available between meals, and team members provide full assistance for residents who need help eating.
Amenities and services at Avalon Memory Care – Keller include wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, a small wellness center, facility-wide internet access, and secure communal gardens where residents can participate in supervised outdoor activities.
