Living Springs Village Memory Care in Waco provides both Assisted Living and specialized Memory Care, with programs that stretch from early cognitive decline through advanced dementia. Clinical protocols are in place for residents who wander during the day or night, present an elopement risk, exhibit combative or other challenging behaviors, stay awake through the night, or require wound care, oxygen therapy, or diabetic management—both oral medication routines and sliding-scale insulin coverage.
All direct-care staff undergo background checks, and doors equipped with Wander Guard technology help maintain resident safety. On-site medical teams coordinate podiatry, dental, and pharmacy services, reducing the need for outside appointments. Personal-care aides are trained to provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting as well as partial help with meals. Transfer capabilities range from standby support with a walker to two-person or Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound residents, so the community can keep residents in place even as mobility changes.
Private and semi-private rooms are available furnished, and many can be customized with residents’ own paint colors or décor; not every unit has every feature, so families should verify specifics during a tour. Standard housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included, and independent-living tenants can elect separate housekeeping services.
The culinary team follows a set menu three times daily, supplemented by all-day snack access. Therapeutic diets such as gluten-free, mechanically chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans are prepared on request, and nutrition staff monitor intake for residents who need extra support. Independent-living residents may add medication-management monitoring if they choose.
Community amenities include outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, an on-site barber and beauty shop, a movie room, reliable internet access, communal gardens, and a rotating calendar of special-interest clubs.
