Great Falls Memory Care by Artis is dedicated exclusively to Memory Care, serving residents with early to advanced dementia. The team is trained to support individuals who wander during the day or night, attempt elopement, present behavioral challenges, or remain awake overnight. Clinical protocols are in place for residents who require oxygen, special diets, or diabetic management—whether by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale dosing. The community also accepts residents under 60 years old with memory impairment, ensuring continuity of care for younger adults.

A licensed nurse is on site around the clock, backed by additional RN and LPN coverage, an awake night shift, and an activity director who coordinates therapeutic engagement. Security measures include a fenced rear area, alarmed doors, and WanderGuard technology, with resident call cords linked directly to staff. On-site medical services such as podiatry, audiology, dental care, therapy sessions, and psychiatric oversight reduce the need for outside appointments. For activities of daily living, staff provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from standby help with a walker to two-person transfers and bed-bound care.

Resident rooms are offered in several layouts, from studios to companion suites. Many include a private bathroom, basic furnishings, individual climate controls, and cable service. Residents may personalize walls with their own paint colors and décor. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the standard package, although feature availability can vary by room type.

Meals are prepared in a choice-driven style that combines daily set menus with made-to-order options. Snacks are available throughout the day, and families can reserve a private dining room for gatherings. The culinary team manages specialized diets, including gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans, coordinating closely with clinical staff to ensure nutritional requirements are met.

Amenities and services include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty salon, a movie room, a wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge assistance, and scheduled transportation for medical or personal errands. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
