Lynridge Assisted Living & Memory Care in Murphy, Texas, delivers two levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—with a strong clinical emphasis. The secured community is prepared to support residents who wander day or night, are prone to elopement, demonstrate combative or other behavioral issues, stay up all night, or live with advanced dementia. Nurses and caregivers can manage wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, diabetes (both oral medications and sliding-scale insulin), and the needs of residents younger than 60.
Beyond condition management, the community provides on-site podiatry, audiology, dental services, and a therapy room, reducing the need for off-site appointments. Staff offer full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and they are trained for every transfer scenario—from standby supervision and walker support to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents.
Apartments vary, but many offer a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to personalize wall colors or décor. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are included, though not every unit has every listed feature, so touring families should confirm specific room details.
Dining options include a set daily menu, an on-order menu for added choice, and all-day snacks. Meals can be served in the dining room or, when needed, in residents’ rooms. The kitchen routinely handles physician-ordered diet modifications such as gluten-free, puréed, thickened-liquid, vegetarian, or other special diets to match each care plan.
Residents can take advantage of on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and outdoor smoking areas. Amenities include a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, library, communal gardens, high-speed internet, and regular religious services. Scheduled transportation and a medical-only shuttle are available for errands and appointments. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
