Riverside Place Memory Care is dedicated solely to residents who are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The community maintains licensed nurses and caregivers on site around the clock, providing continuous supervision, medication management, health monitoring, and prompt coordination with physicians and pharmacies. Personalized care plans are reviewed regularly, and the building is secured to reduce elopement risk while still allowing residents to move about freely within designated areas. Assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and mobility is delivered as needed, and emergency response systems are in place in both common areas and resident suites.
Beyond direct medical oversight, the community offers a structured calendar of cognitive and physical activities designed to support memory retention and overall well-being. Residents can take part in small-group reminiscence sessions, music therapy, chair exercises, and escorted outings to local points of interest. Scheduled transportation is available for outside medical appointments, and families are encouraged to attend care conferences so everyone stays informed about changes in condition or treatment plans. Short-term respite stays can be arranged when space permits, and hospice agencies may be brought in for end-of-life support.
Accommodations at Riverside Place include a choice of private and shared suites, each outfitted with basic furnishings, safety-rated flooring, and bathrooms equipped with grab bars and walk-in showers. Emergency call systems are standard, and housekeeping and laundry services are provided on a routine schedule. Select apartments offer additional features such as small sitting areas, extra storage, or views of landscaped courtyards, but not all accommodations include every feature. Some suites are designated as pet-friendly; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Meals are prepared on site three times a day, with menus developed to meet the nutritional needs common in older adults and to accommodate doctor-ordered diets such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanically soft. Residents dine together in a communal setting that allows staff to monitor intake, offer cueing, and assist with adaptive utensils when necessary. Hydration and snack stations remain accessible between meals, and special themed dinners or family guest nights are scheduled periodically. The culinary team works closely with nursing staff to adjust textures or portion sizes as residents’ needs change over time.
