Lake Ridge Senior Living in Orem, Utah, provides both Assisted Living and Independent Living, each supported by a broad set of medical services. Residents with behavioral health needs, adults under the age of 60, and individuals living with moderate dementia can receive targeted assistance from on-site nurses, therapists, and memory-care professionals. Clinical offerings include incontinence and ambulatory care, medication management, hospice coordination, and regular visits from occupational, physical, and podiatric specialists. A dentist is also available on campus, reducing the need for outside appointments.
Round-the-clock safety is maintained through a 24-hour nurse on call, awake night staff, door alarms, and a fully fenced rear area. All employees undergo background checks, and pull-cord alerts connect residents directly to caregivers. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to one-person lifts, and it accommodates walkers and wheelchairs. An activity director coordinates daily programming that meets medical, cognitive, and social goals for each resident.
Apartments can include a private bathroom and individual climate controls, although not every unit has both features, so it is best to confirm availability when touring. Rooms are wheelchair accessible, and maintenance staff handle routine repairs. Independent Living residents receive regular housekeeping as part of their basic service package, allowing them to focus on social and wellness activities rather than chores.
Meals follow a set menu prepared by culinary staff who can adjust textures, portion sizes, or ingredients for physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium or diabetic plans. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and caregivers are available to provide full dining assistance if needed. Independent Living residents may opt into a monthly meal plan that covers a predetermined number of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, giving them flexibility to cook in their own kitchens or dine with friends in the communal restaurant-style setting.
Amenities include outdoor smoking areas, community-wide internet access, and full wheelchair accessibility throughout the property. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments, shopping centers, and local events. Pets are allowed, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
