Ashley Manor Memory Care sits in a cozy, home-like setting designed for seniors with Alzheimer's, dementia, or memory loss, and with only nine units, residents get a quiet place that's easy to move around and keep track of, so they don't feel overwhelmed by big crowds or confusing hallways, and the staff knows every resident well, knowing what each person likes, what help they need, and how their days go best. Residents have private rooms with memory boxes outside each suite to help them remember where they live, and the layout of the building uses circular walking paths so everybody who likes to walk always ends up back where they started, which helps people who may sometimes wander or get confused. The doors and backyards are secured and there are high-tech alarm systems, so families can feel better knowing safety is a top concern, but residents still get independence to move about, visit the secured courtyard and backyard, and spend time on patios or walk the tranquil paths that wind through the grounds.
A full-time activity director provides a variety of activities, with everything from music and light therapy to reminiscing or aroma therapy, all meant to keep minds and bodies active in simple, joyful ways, and those who want a little company can spend time with friendly small pets who are allowed in the home. Staff includes a nurse on-site and 24-hour supervision by trained team members who help with all daily needs such as bathing, dressing, medication, and oxygen assistance, and they can also assist with behavior, incontinence, or any changes that may come up as someone's needs change over time. Meal times offer three home-cooked, nutritious meals a day plus snacks, and special diets can be made for those who need them, and the staff also takes care of laundry and cleaning, so residents don't have to worry about daily chores.
Ashley Manor Memory Care offers personalized care plans and special therapies for memory care, including programs for individuals with Alzheimer's or other cognitive decline, and they offer adult day programs and respite care for people who need care temporarily or during the day only. There's also spiritual support with onsite devotional services, visits from doctors, and support groups in the Resource Center for those dealing with Alzheimer's or other memory loss. The home is wheelchair accessible and has private or semi-private suites depending on what's available or needed, and the entire structure is all-inclusive so families know the cost beforehand without worrying about a bunch of extra fees along the way.
Ashley Manor Memory Care is associated with Ashley Manor Beverly Hills in Payette, ID, and is part of the Ashley Manor communities known for memory care, covering a wide range of support types, from independent and assisted living to skilled nursing, hospice, adult day services, and Medicare-certified home health care, all while focusing on dignity, compassion, and creating a peaceful present for each person, with the goal being to cherish every day, help each resident keep as much independence as possible, and support families throughout the process.
