The Courtyard at Delta is a senior living community owned by Encore Senior Living that offers both assisted living and memory care. The place has 53 assisted living apartments, which are bigger than most, along with 32 memory care apartments set up for people with dementia, including Alzheimer's disease at any stage. Residents get help with daily activities like dressing and bathing, and trained staff provide medication management, safety checks, and support whenever needed. There are around-the-clock caregivers and licensed nurses along with visiting physicians and podiatrists for regular checkups, and therapy services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy are available onsite.
The community is built with seniors in mind, featuring private studio and one-bedroom apartments that come with emergency call systems, cable television, private bathrooms, and en-suite kitchenettes with mini refrigerators, plus personal washers and dryers in the one-bedroom apartments. There's a beauty salon, spa/bathtique, wellness office, and garden patio with raised planters designed by Lansing's Horrock's Nursery Farms, all set among gardens and two large courtyard areas with walking paths and plenty of seating.
Residents eat together in a restaurant-style dining room with balanced meals planned by chefs, and staff handle weekly housekeeping and laundry. Residents can take part in fitness classes, card games, themed events, music nights, bus trips, and outings to local attractions. The activity calendar includes music instrument swaps, "Music Under the Stars," and group day trips, and there are regular grand openings, holiday open houses, and community events for residents, families, and friends. Special annual contests like the "2023 People Contest," "2024 People Contest," and "2025 People Contest" add some extra activity to the year.
Other unique features include the "Top of the Town" showcase for local highlights, a section called "Local experts," access to community news, arts, opinion, and local culture through connections with the Greater Lansing music scene, and radio and TV services. There are also collections of digital publications called "E-editions." Social opportunities happen every day through cards, exercise, special events, dining, and companionship.
The Courtyard at Delta supports independence but can adjust help based on each person's needs, with customized care plans created from individual assessments. Memory care residents will find separate activities and spaces to keep them engaged and safe at all stages of memory loss, and respite care is available for those who need a short stay or a break from caregiving. The facility features a culture of friendliness from staff who aim to keep everyone comfortable and content. With scheduled transportation for appointments or social events and coordinated help for medical visits, residents and families can expect support in daily living while still enjoying active and social lives.
