Tealridge Assisted Living and Memory Care sits in Edmond, Oklahoma, just outside of Oklahoma City, and offers options for seniors looking for independent living, assisted living, or memory care all in one place which can be helpful if care needs become greater over time and there's no need to move. The community allows pets and has apartments with names like Dover for studios, Berkley and Richmond for one-bedroom layouts, and Windsor, Edinburgh I and II, and Warwick for the two-bedroom choices, so residents can pick what fits them best, and these apartments come with individual thermostats, full kitchens, big closets, carpeting, and private bathrooms and patios or balconies, which can make things feel more like home. There's a move-in fee to reserve an apartment and the community accepts private pay, long-term care insurance, V.A. benefits, and Medicaid. Tealridge's independent apartments come with maintenance services, heat and smoke detectors, sprinkler systems, an emergency alert system, weekly housekeeping, and laundry for linens and towels, plus group transportation that helps residents get around for errands or appointments and maybe even some group trips out to local restaurants.
The memory care program is meant for people with Alzheimer's or dementia and focuses on offering medication management, keeping everyone safe, and working with both the behavioral and emotional needs of the residents, so people can stay comfortable and avoid confusion and wandering. Staff aim to make sure each person keeps their dignity, independence, and sense of choice, and the community designs both group and individual activities around people's interests-movie nights, group games, outings, volunteering, and daily living help are all part of life here and the Memory Care staff are trained specially for residents with memory issues, which can be a comfort to families. For those in need of assisted living, support with bathing, dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, and medication are part of what's offered and appointments get managed too, so residents don't have to keep track of their own schedules all alone. There are devotional services, Sunday worship, social games, volunteer chances, low-impact workouts, and fitness training, plus regular health seminars and multi-dimensional wellness programs.
There's a life care program and activities mix focused on things like physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and intellectual wellness, so everyone can connect or take part in something that fits their interests and hobbies, and the facility's management by Purple Door, LLC, with a local ownership group, means the staff know the area and the people they serve.
