    About Scandi Haven of Cura

    Scandi Haven of Cura is a senior living community that's set up for older adults needing everything from independent living to assisted living and memory care, and it uses names like "Scandi Haven" and "Cura" for its buildings and programs, and the place has board and care homes in quiet residential neighborhoods for small groups, which means people get daily care from staff who know them, and there's a continuing care community setup so folks can stay as their needs change, so if someone needs more support later on, they can get it without having to move out of their apartment, and there's a secured memory care wing with 19 private rooms and bathrooms, secure exits, and a courtyard for safety, so residents with dementia have a safe space. Apartments come with full kitchens, full bathrooms, laundry facilities, and heating and air conditioning you control yourself, and some units have kitchenettes for those who want them, and everyone has access to telephones and Wi-Fi. The assisted living services include help with bathing, dressing, using the toilet, personal hygiene, and medication management, and there are nurse visits, safety checks, and medical monitoring, and everything starts with a registered nurse's assessment to see what someone needs, and they keep checking in over time. There are fee-based services like laundry and therapy, and the staff can help coordinate with doctors and handle rides to appointments, and for the folks who need a special diet, they handle that too, offering a dining room with restaurant-style meals all day long and even meals for guests. Residents can join in on movie nights, walking paths, gardens, a library, a bistro, and lots of community or resident-led activities, and there's a barber and beauty salon right onsite. Social spaces include a fireplace, chapel, dining rooms, an exercise room, a multi-purpose room, and a community room, and there are convenient elevators and a lobby, plus there's an enclosed link to the nearby hospital and clinic for easier access. The whole community uses secure, controlled access, and staff are there 24 hours a day with a call and emergency alert system for quick help if it's ever needed, and the place supports residents with mild cognitive impairment and offers dementia waiver options. People can get weekly light housekeeping, and there's a life coordinator on staff to help keep folks involved and connected, and services can be adjusted as needs change, with choices for additional care through A La Carte options. Scandi Haven of Cura has a focus on elder care rights and offers elder care resources and even webinars, and at the moment, it doesn't have any complaint or survey records. There are privacy policies and online accessibility features for families staying connected, and services that require logging in like Facebook Messenger and Meta's other tools. Residents get help that's real and hands-on, but can keep their independence where possible, with options for extra care if and when it's needed, and there are also independent living services for those who don't need help now but want the security if things ever change.
