Laurelwood Assisted Living, LLC, in Dayton, sits close to Dayton Mall and Cox Arboretum so folks who live there can enjoy shopping, dining, and seasonal gardens nearby, and the community itself has a peaceful property and a familial, welcoming atmosphere. The building has three stories with both assisted living and a specialized memory care neighborhood for people with Alzheimer's or other forms of memory loss, and they set up both private and companion apartments with private bathrooms, cable, emergency call systems, and individually controlled heating and air. Residents can bring their cats or dogs if they want, and the place has enclosed courtyards, walking paths, and a gazebo for getting outside, as well as indoor lounges, exercise classes, and a beauty salon. There's always a team on site, with licensed nurses managing health care, full-time activity directors making daily schedules, and around-the-clock staff for help and security, and they all focus on personalized and dignified support, including medication help, medical appointment scheduling, and help with bathing and dressing.
Meals are home-cooked by the executive chef and team, with three nutritious meals and snacks every day, plus guest meals and catering services for special events if families or friends come to visit. There's a reserved private dining room for small gatherings, and folks can invite their own guests with a reservation. Activities include trips and outings, devotionals, exercise, group events, and special parties to encourage people to stay active and engaged. The memory care area is safe and secure, specially designed with routines and structure for people who need extra support, and there's a director of memory care and a team focused on person-centered attention, including custom care plans, therapies, field trips, and a controlled-access building with safety checks, secure doors, and 24/7 emergency systems.
Housekeeping, laundry, scheduled rides, and all utilities except phone are part of the lease, and the management team-maintenance, business office, nursing, admissions, and staffing-help things run smoothly day by day. The amenities also include a residents' lounge, recreation areas, fitness space, elevators, religious services, controlled access, pet accommodations, and plenty of indoor and outdoor common areas for socializing or quiet time, and the staff always aims for a positive, supportive environment where people feel at home and their care matches their medical and personal needs.
