Sandalwood Creek sits on a quiet country property and offers a small group home setting with space for up to six residents, and the place is secure so folks with memory issues or a tendency to wander can stay safe, and you'll find the secured memory care section in its own building, which has bracelets that ring alarms if someone tries to leave. The community provides both assisted living and memory care, and it's designed for seniors who want independence but might need help with things like bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, and there's twenty-four-hour supervision by staff who know how to work with memory loss, cognitive decline, and behaviors that can come with those issues. All the rooms-studio, semi-private, and even some two-bedrooms-sit on the ground floor, and every room's got wheelchair-accessible showers, air conditioning, and cable TV. Residents get three meals each day, with options for those who need low-sodium or no-sugar diets, along with snacks and community dining.
Every resident gets a personalized care plan, and the staff can help with medications, incontinence, diabetes care, and assisted transfer-even using mechanical lifts if needed, and the team includes nurses on staff and a doctor on call, plus physical, occupational, and speech therapists that come in along with visits from a podiatrist and dentist. They've got an onsite pharmacy, skilled nursing, and offer hospice if a resident needs it. Laundry, housekeeping, and dry cleaning get taken care of, and there's a beauty salon and barber on site for haircuts or grooming. The community's designed with indoor and outdoor common spaces, so there's a TV lounge, recreation rooms, an arts and crafts area, a recreation area with a piano or organ, and lots of areas to just sit or visit-plus outdoor patios, gardens, and walking paths around the grounds. Residents can move in with pets sometimes, and the place is wheelchair-friendly throughout, and families can park nearby with uncovered spots available.
Sandalwood Creek runs many activities onsite like game nights, cooking clubs, BBQs, picnics, birthday parties, holiday celebrations, and even musical groups formed by residents, and they hold Protestant services and offer devotional activities. The staff encourages residents to stay independent and involved, but they're always ready to help with personal care needs. Folks can come for respite, too, staying for a short time if family needs extra help or just a break, and the home can take residents with more care needs as time goes on so they don't have to move. Payment is by check, and the facility's licensed by the state as an Adult Small Group Home, but it's not Medicare- or Medicaid-certified. Residents at Sandalwood Creek are treated with dignity and respect and get to enjoy a warm, caring place that's been serving seniors with assisted living, respite, and memory care since 1997.
