Marlow Manor Assisted Living Facility is a senior living community that's been open since 1999, and the place feels more like a home than an institution, which some folks say helps people settle in a little easier. The building is three storeys tall and covers about 40,000 square feet, with 48 apartments in studio, alcove, and one-bedroom sizes, all with kitchenettes, cable or satellite TV, large bathrooms, and emergency call systems. The apartments come with microwaves, refrigerators, and enough space that residents can bring in some of their own things. Meals are cooked by a chef, and staff take care of housekeeping, laundry, and getting folks to appointments if they need a ride.
Trained staff members are around at all hours, with Mr. Greg Franks serving as the property supervisor, making sure everything runs smoothly. Social workers and caregivers help residents with daily needs like bathing, dressing, or getting to meals, and they put together schedules full of activities, events, outings, and opportunities to keep minds sharp and folks socializing. Regular community events, activities for memory care residents, and outings help prevent people from feeling isolated. Memory care is available in a secure part of the building for people with dementia or Alzheimer's, where staff focus on routines and calming spaces, and there's participation in programs like Ducks for Dementia donations.
There's a lounge, a game room, beauty and barber services, an activity director, and common rooms where you'll see people relaxing or chatting throughout the day, and you'll see staff stopping to say hello instead of rushing past. The building has elevators, so all areas are easy to get to, whether you're moving in a walker or a wheelchair. For those who like to stay fit or keep moving, recreation and fitness spaces are available along with scheduled transportation for going offsite.
Marlow Manor works under a business license as a Limited Liability Company, with related businesses like Manor Management of Alaska and Sourdough's Housing LLC. It holds a BBB accreditation with an A+ rating, which some people like to know, and photos of the place can be seen if you visit their social media channels, since they keep Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn accounts up to date. The focus here is on person-centered care, where support is adjusted for each resident-assisted living, independent living, memory care, or even nursing home services if that's what's needed-always trying to help each person stay as independent as possible. Even though some things are routine, staff try to make each day meaningful and keep the environment both safe and friendly, so residents can feel valued and included.
