Avalon Assisted Living is a memory care community dedicated to supporting residents with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The facility is purpose-built for memory care, providing a secured environment specifically designed to keep residents safe and comfortable. Utilizing advanced technology, such as bracelets that sound an alarm if a resident attempts to leave, Avalon Assisted Living ensures that individuals prone to wandering can be monitored while maintaining their dignity and independence as much as possible. The memory care area operates as a distinct section within the community, offering targeted support for those facing significant cognitive decline or behavior issues.
The staff at Avalon Assisted Living is available around the clock, delivering care that promotes the personal well-being of each resident. Highly trained team members are able to supervise daily living activities and offer reminders and hands-on assistance with grooming, toileting, hygiene, medication management, mobility, nutrition, and housekeeping. Nurses are permanently on staff, ensuring that medical needs are quickly addressed, while a doctor remains on call to provide additional support as required. Devotional services are available to nurture the spiritual life of the residents, fostering a holistic environment of care.
Avalon Assisted Living provides graduated care levels — light, medium, and heavy — allowing residents to remain within the community as their needs evolve. Those who can manage most daily tasks may only require cueing or supervision, while others with more complex or advancing needs are given comprehensive support, which includes help with nearly all activities. Standby assistance and physical transfers are available for non-ambulatory residents, and specialized equipment, such as mechanical lifts, ensures the highest safety standards during mobility assistance. The staff at Avalon Assisted Living is also equipped to manage behavioral symptoms, including physical aggression or behaviors that might otherwise challenge residential placements.
In terms of additional health considerations, Avalon Assisted Living is prepared to support residents coping with diabetes, offering medication administration, blood sugar monitoring, and insulin injections, including sliding-scale therapy as needed. For those experiencing incontinence, the staff provides both reminders and hands-on support with bladder and bowel care, dependent on the individual's capabilities. The community also welcomes residents who present an elopement risk or who need extra supervision due to challenging behaviors, making it an inclusive home for those with complex needs.
Residents at Avalon Assisted Living have access to a variety of engaging activities structured to stimulate the mind and body, tailored for those with memory loss. Accommodations are thoughtfully designed, with studio rooms providing a supportive living environment. The community strives to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging space where every individual can thrive, regardless of the level of care they require.
