Desert Willows Memory Care in St. George offers a single, dedicated level of care focused on residents who are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The community is structured to address cognitive challenges through individualized support plans, consistent routines, and purposeful engagement designed to maintain abilities for as long as possible.
Beyond specialized memory-care programming, the community employs an emergency response system that allows staff to react quickly to changes in a resident’s condition or to urgent situations. Caregivers are available around the clock, and the layout is engineered to support safe navigation while reducing the risk of wandering.
Private and companion apartments are available in several floor plans, and many allow residents to bring a small pet. Utilities—except for telephone service—are included, although not every accommodation offers every feature, so families should confirm details during a tour.
Meals are prepared on-site and served three times daily, with menus designed to be both appealing and nutritionally balanced. Staff can adapt textures or portion sizes as needed to support individual dietary requirements, and snacks are available between meals to promote steady caloric intake.
Residents have access to structured social outings, on-campus social activities, movie showings in the theater, and regular planned events and entertainment. A library, art classes, and exercise classes provide additional opportunities for cognitive and physical engagement, contributing to a well-rounded daily schedule.
