Silverado Belmont Hills Memory Care Community sits among quiet, tree-lined grounds and is built as a single-story, free-standing building, so folks don't have to worry about stairs or elevators, which makes getting around simpler. The place specializes in memory care and is designed for people with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, offering both private and semi-private rooms, with studios starting at $12,450 and semi-private rooms at $9,600. The community keeps the property secured with things like coded entry and a wander alert system - even using special bracelets to help prevent residents from getting lost. All the staff, including licensed nurses, masters level social workers, and a physician as medical director, are certified in dementia care, and there's someone on-site at all hours of the day and night, ready to help with medication, diabetic care, incontinence, and behavioral concerns such as wandering or aggression.
Silverado offers personalized care plans and adapts as needs change. Nurses help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and moving around-using lifts if needed-and also take care of people with diabetes, bowel or bladder issues, or mobility problems. Residents who have a risk of eloping or who show difficult behaviors can still be cared for here, and the team is trained to manage these situations, doing their best to keep everyone safe and treated with respect. Families can also find respite care here if they need a temporary break from caregiving responsibilities.
There's a regular schedule of activities, from stretching, yoga, and gardening, to art, cooking classes, and even karaoke or trips out on the Silverado bus. Programs like Nexus support brain-healthy living, while the Silverado Sensory Program offers ways to help residents connect with their environment. Social interaction and emotional well-being are encouraged, and staff run things like pet programs because residents can even bring their dog or cat, with help caring for the pet if needed. A chef prepares meals with options for special diets, including vegetarian, and there are guest meals and private dining if families visit. The community has indoor and outdoor common areas, a fitness room, library, garden spots, beautician services, and wheelchair-friendly showers.
Silverado Belmont Hills keeps a warm, inviting atmosphere, and the property stays clean and well-kept for all residents. The culture leans heavily on kindness and patience, and the community aims to give support to both residents and their families, offering educational resources on dementia and crisis help for caregivers. Amenities like complimentary transportation, hospice, and ADL/IADL support are included. Onsite and visiting professionals like physical, occupational, and speech therapists provide extra care as needed. The place also offers devotional services, intergenerational programs, and special activities that keep people's minds and bodies active. Silverado Belmont Hills Memory Care Community has spent more than twenty years focusing on memory care, striving to give seniors living with dementia a safe, dignified, and comfortable place to call home.
