Ashley Manor-Saulsbury sits in Lakewood, Colorado, and is a small senior living facility with space for up to 16 residents at 1370 Saulsbury St. The place has single bedrooms, shared apartments, and small studios that keep comfort in mind, and offers both private and semi-private suites, so folks have a choice about their living space, and the rooms come with private baths for added ease. The community takes care of seniors who need assisted living or memory care, with staff trained specially for Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, and they're on duty 24 hours a day to give help when it's needed.
Residents who need support for things like taking medicine, getting dressed, dealing with mobility, continence, incontinence, and even behavior support will find helpers available, and everyone gets a personalized care plan. They check on each person's health often, and there's always a nurse on-call around the clock. They've got medication support, oxygen help, specialized diets, and help for people who have diabetes or trouble moving. Folks can use home health and hospice services here, too, and caregivers are ready to handle memory-related needs in a gentle way.
Around the grounds, you'll find a greenhouse, landscaped gardens, secure backyard patios, and circular walking and jogging paths to let people walk without getting lost. They've got a variety of activities such as arts and crafts, chapel service, and other community-inspired get-togethers, along with wellness programs that are a bit different for each person, and there are sensory therapies like Aroma Therapy, Reminiscence Therapy, Hydration Therapy, Music Therapy, and Light Therapy. Residents can enjoy high-definition TVs, a theater room, library, remodeled lodge, salon, and they can bring pets if pets bring them comfort.
Ashley Manor-Saulsbury keeps things comfortable and home-like, helping residents stay as independent as they can, and tries to provide a safe environment, with high-tech alarms, secured premises, and emergency response systems in each room. There's a real focus on routines and meals, with 3 home-cooked meals served daily plus snacks, and help with laundry, cleaning, and linen changes. Seniors here use scheduled transportation for appointments, as well as a custom needs assessment to make sure people get what they require. There are Christian chapel services for those looking for that, and the place stays open 24 hours a day.
If someone needs a short-term stay, like respite care, that's also available. The staff tries to keep everyone active, with custom programs suited for both body and mind, and they use memory boxes in front of rooms to help folks remember their space. People living here can expect a slower pace, friendly faces, and a close-knit group who know each other well thanks to the small size-just 16 assisted living units-and everything is wheelchair-accessible to keep life simple and moving.
