Memory Lane

Memory Lane sits in Van Buren, Arkansas, and has served seniors since 2009 with a focus on memory care and assisted living, so folks can get support with daily life or more specialized help if they have Alzheimer's or dementia, and you'll find separate, secure units here called Memory Lane Alzheimer's Special Care Unit, which offers 24-hour nursing care in three individual units, with trained staff always nearby to help keep everyone safe and cared for, and you can choose from studio apartments all the way up to two-bedroom suites, each having its own kitchen or kitchenette, individually controlled heat and air, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and a nurse call system, along with regular housekeeping and laundry services, and paid utilities are part of the deal, too. The whole place is built for safety and comfort, featuring full sprinkler systems, handicap-accessible features, and 24-hour security, plus community spaces like game and activities rooms, dining rooms, a library, and a gathering room that make it easy for folks to connect while staying safe from wandering, since the units have secured access and common areas are monitored. Home-cooked meals are made by a certified dietary manager with input from a dietitian, so everyone eats well, and if dietary needs come up, those are met, with three meals a day and snacks, and the staff provides help with bathing, dressing, eating, and medication management, while transportation for appointments or outings is arranged as needed. There's even a salon and barbershop, a fitness center for exercise, and regular social and recreational activities organized by a full-time activities director, so routines are kept and folks stay engaged, and if home care or companionship is needed, personal care aides are available, plus the facility works with long-term care insurance and offers adult day care, outpatient therapy, memory care programs, hospice, skilled nursing, and outpatient services, all under one licensed Arkansas state facility with special certification for Alzheimer's care. Memory care areas are carefully laid out to limit confusion and prevent injuries, with familiar layouts and safety surfaces, and the care team aims to preserve dignity, health, and quality of life for every resident, whether someone needs just a little help or full-time memory support in an environment that really does feel more like home than a hospital.
