The Springs Memory Care is a dedicated memory-care community designed for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, including advanced stages. Care is centered on a secured setting with 24-hour staff, routine background checks, and a PERS alert system that immediately notifies team members. Residents who wander, attempt elopement, or display other exit-seeking behaviors are monitored day and night, with both AM and PM wander management protocols in place. On-site medical services cover medication management, hospice coordination, incontinence care, ambulatory oversight, and programs created specifically to support memory loss.
Daily support extends to every basic activity of living. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, adjusting the level of help as residents’ needs change. Transfer aid ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person assistance, and equipment such as walkers and wheelchairs is accommodated. Night-shift staff remain on site but asleep, ready to respond as needed, and the community’s layout is configured solely for memory-care residents, reducing confusion and maintaining familiarity.
Apartments and common areas include practical features such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, wheelchair-accessible showers, and outdoor sitting spaces, though not every unit offers every feature. Some suites have direct access to the courtyard, while others are closer to the central fireplace or piano lounge. The property is pet friendly; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Reserved parking is available for visiting family members, and barrier-free pathways help residents move about safely.
Meals follow a set menu tailored to meet nutritional guidelines for older adults with cognitive impairment. Staff assist residents who need cueing or full help with eating and ensure that hydration needs are met throughout the day. Consistent meal times, familiar dishes, and minimized distractions are used to support appetite and reduce anxiety.
Beyond essential care, residents have access to a small movie room for scheduled film viewings, a wellness center that hosts exercise and therapy sessions, and maintained communal gardens for light outdoor activity. These spaces provide structured opportunities for social engagement and gentle physical movement under staff supervision.
