Cove Point in Provo offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to step up or scale back care as needed without leaving the community. A nurse is on call around the clock, and the community is equipped to support residents under 60 as well as those living with advanced dementia. On-site podiatry helps manage foot and mobility issues, and the team accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses, coordinating with outside providers when necessary. Direct care staff can give some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer support ranges from simple standby supervision to one-person assistance with walkers or wheelchairs, helping residents stay mobile and safe.
Safety and oversight are reinforced by routine background checks for all employees and a full-time activity director who tailors programs to each resident’s abilities. The nurse reviews health changes, medication concerns, and care plans, while caregivers document vitals and daily needs. Regular checks, secure entry systems, and staff trained in dementia communication techniques aim to reduce wandering risks and medical complications. In this clinical framework, residents still retain as much independence as possible, with staff stepping in only when hands-on help is required.
Accommodation options vary in size and layout; not every unit has every feature. Some apartments include a private bathroom, a kitchenette for light meal prep, independent temperature controls, and cable hookups. Residents can furnish their spaces to suit personal preferences, and maintenance staff handle repairs and safety inspections.
Meals follow a set menu prepared three times daily, with snacks available between service times. Portions and textures can be modified for medical or dental needs, and staff remain nearby to assist those who need help with eating. Independent Living residents receive weekly housekeeping and scheduled laundry service, which can be increased if health changes make more frequent support necessary.
Residents can take advantage of on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, internet access, scheduled religious services, and a dedicated space for family-history research. Apartments are equipped with an intercom system, and select units include a patio or balcony and a gas fireplace. Scheduled transportation and proximity to public transit make off-site appointments easy. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
