West Fork at Weatherford is an assisted living community designed for residents who want help with daily routines but wish to retain as much independence as possible. The staff is trained to provide ongoing diabetes management, including monitoring blood glucose levels and coordinating medication schedules. For families who need a temporary solution, the residence offers respite and short-term stays that include the same level of support available to long-term residents. A licensed speech therapist is on call to work with individuals recovering from stroke, managing Parkinson’s disease, or addressing other communication challenges.
The community is fully secured, a feature that supports residents who may be at risk of wandering or who simply want an added layer of safety. Care staff are on site around the clock, coordinating with outside physicians and pharmacies to ensure medication accuracy and timely administration. Emergency response systems are integrated throughout the property, and routine wellness checks are part of the daily schedule, giving families added confidence in the reliability of the care program.
Accommodations range from studios to larger apartment-style layouts, and floor plans vary in the features they include. Options may incorporate kitchenettes for light meal preparation, wheelchair-accessible showers, private decks or patios, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi access, individual climate controls, and views of outdoor areas. Select units are pet friendly, and common areas like the central fireplace lounge, piano corner, and outdoor terraces give residents additional space to relax. Because floor plans differ, not every apartment includes every amenity, so prospective residents should review specific units during a tour.
Dining is served restaurant style, with a professional chef overseeing menus that can accommodate low-sodium and no-sugar requests. The kitchen offers all-day dining as well as scheduled meals, and guest meals are available for visiting family members. International dishes rotate through the menu, and residents who prefer lighter fare can order alternatives without advance notice. Nutritional staff coordinate closely with the clinical team to align dietary plans with individual health needs.
Beyond care and housing, residents have access to a range of on-site and off-site activities. The activity center hosts chair yoga, fitness programs, karaoke, live-music events, and regular happy hours. An indoor walking path connects to outdoor walking trails and raised garden beds, allowing exercise in any weather. The community schedules social outings to local attractions and organizes dances, birthday parties, and intergenerational programs that bring in local students for shared projects. A library with computer lounge supports clubs and discussion groups, while reminiscence and sensory-based programs are available for residents who benefit from structured cognitive engagement. A swimming pool provides an additional option for low-impact exercise and recreation.
