Alta Ridge of Sandy offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, giving residents and families options that match changing health needs. The community is equipped to support moderate dementia and behaviors such as wandering during the day or night, exit seeking, and staying up through the night. Clinical teams monitor residents who require wound care, oxygen therapy, specialized diets, full diabetic management for those on oral medication, and adults younger than 60 who need an assisted-living level of support.
Round-the-clock coverage includes an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All team members pass background checks, and the building uses pull-cord and PERS systems that alert staff immediately. Night staff stay awake, and secured doors, fenced outdoor space, and WanderGuard technology limit unsafe exits. A visiting podiatrist provides routine foot care. Staff can fully assist with bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, and transfers that range from stand-by help to wheelchair or one-person lifts.
Residences vary; some layouts include a private bath, kitchenette, individual climate controls, and permission to paint or decorate, while others do not contain every feature. Meals are offered from a set menu or made to order, with snacks available throughout the day and diet modifications arranged as prescribed. For independent-living residents, the community can supply medication-management oversight, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and a monthly meal plan that covers routine dining needs.
Campus amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Transportation is available, and public transit stops are nearby. Outdoor smoking areas are designated, and pets are welcome in accordance with community guidelines—it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
