West Towne Assisted Living Community sits on a 57,000 square-foot property offering seventy apartments for seniors who need assisted living, independent living, memory care, or short-term respite care, and the place stays open around the clock with staff you can reach anytime, whether it's early in the morning or late at night. There's a dedicated memory care center for those with memory concerns. The apartments come in different styles like 2-bedroom, studio, and single rooms, and many have kitchenettes, so residents can do their own light cooking if they want, plus every unit has cable and internet.
Pets can stay with their owners, and there's a fenced garden area, outdoor patios, and walking paths for getting fresh air, or folks can gather in the recreation room or library, and there's always something going, like game nights, book club, story time, or a resident musical group. The staff include experienced caregivers, part-time nurses, personal care assistants, and specialists like visiting occupational and physical therapists-there's also a pharmacy on-site, a salon/barbershop, and a dedicated beauty area. Residents get help with chores like laundry, linen service, and cleaning, with extra help available for medication management, cooking, to appointments, or other personal needs.
Meals can be served with special diets in mind, so if someone needs low fat, vegetarian, kosher, diabetic, low or no salt, or renal meals, that can be arranged, and there's a private dining room for visitors, group gatherings, or meals with family. There's in-house and religious service and VA aid help, and residents can have overnight guests or visitors at meals-there's guest parking too. The community takes security seriously, with a gated entrance, a 24-hour security system, personal emergency systems in rooms, and supervised entry and exit, so everyone can feel safe.
Residents who enjoy being active can use the fitness center or take part in yoga, stretching, fitness, or wellness programs. Activities like arts and crafts, cooking club, educational programs, and facilitated outings happen regularly, and everyone can use the computer area or attend music or literary events. West Towne runs as a family-owned business managed by the LaCour family, who've been in care for forty-seven years, and for those who worry about paperwork and payments, the staff offer financial advice and accept insurance, checks, VA benefits, and offer guidance on costs, with an entry fee set at $1,500.
If someone wants to live as independently as possible, the staff encourages that, but for those who need extra support with memory, health care, or rehabilitation, the services adjust to the person's needs. There's help for daily medication reminders, psychiatric care, in-home health, home care, companion care, hospice, and short-term stays. The community sees itself as a home where people can keep their dignity, make new friends, join in daily activities, and remain as independent as possible, all while getting the support they want, and families can come for tours anytime to see the place for themselves.
