Silverado Southlake Memory Care Community is dedicated exclusively to memory care and is equipped to manage a wide range of medical needs frequently seen with cognitive decline. Care teams handle residents who wander at any time of day, exhibit elopement risk, show combative or other challenging behaviors, or stay awake throughout the night. Nurses monitor complex medical conditions such as wounds, oxygen therapy requirements, and diabetes—whether managed with oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. The community also admits residents under 60 years old and is prepared to care for people with advanced dementia or psychiatric concerns.
Registered and licensed nurses are on site around the clock, backed by an awake night shift, an activity director, and full background-checked staff. Safety measures include a fenced perimeter, alarmed doors, pull-cord call systems, and 24-hour staffing. Residents can receive total assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walker users to one- or two-person transfers, full Hoyer-lift transfers, and care for individuals who are bed-bound.
Suites can feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, basic furnishings, individual climate controls, and the option to paint or decorate, though not every unit contains every feature. For older adults in the community’s independent-living section, medication-management monitoring, housekeeping, and personal laundry services are available to help maintain safety and routine without giving up autonomy.
Meals are offered on a set menu designed to meet common dietary requirements, with staff able to accommodate physician-ordered restrictions such as low-sugar plans for diabetics. Snacks are kept available so residents can eat outside scheduled mealtimes, a practice that can be helpful for those with changing appetites or irregular sleep patterns.
Amenities include outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, a wellness center, and landscaped communal gardens. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments, shopping, and local outings.
