Rivermont Assisted Living and Memory Care sits on the outskirts of Norman, Oklahoma, right next to the Oliver Wildlife Preserve, and is part of the Legend Senior Living community, so you'll see a focus on comfort and community in everything they do. The building is purpose-built with bright, open common areas, and there's a homelike feel whether you're in the assisted living or the memory care section, which have their own secure spaces and systems to keep everyone safe, using alarms and bracelets for those at risk of wandering. Residents can choose between living totally independently or receiving different levels of support, and the staff help with things like grooming, bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and even administering insulin injections if needed, with nurses and medication technicians on hand all day and night.
Memory care is a major part of what Rivermont offers, with a dedicated wing and caregivers who are specially trained for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and there's a lot of emphasis on dignity, independence, and tailoring care to each person's needs, so changes in health can be met by adjusting that support, whether the resident needs just a little help or hands-on care because of wandering or behavioral concerns.
There's 24-hour care and supervision, including for residents who might have aggressive or unusual behaviors, and the building itself is closely monitored so family members have peace of mind. On-site healthcare visits are available from nurses, podiatrists, and therapists, and there's coordination with doctors as needed. The dining program is called Gold Leaf Dining, and meal options cover restaurant-style service, room service, and special diets like low sodium, gluten-free, or sugar-reduced meals, with international cuisine and anytime dining if someone's hungry outside regular hours, plus guest meals for visitors.
Activities run all week and are led by full-time directors, with things like art classes, yoga, karaoke, educational lectures, game nights, community volunteering, gardening, stretching, and even trips to local spots. Memory care has tailored activities to keep minds engaged, from brain fitness and cooking classes to music and pet therapy, since pets are allowed, and there are special companion services for extra social support. Friendship and socializing are encouraged, and the facility holds support groups for families, too.
Transportation's available, with complimentary and paid rides and resident parking for those still driving. Extra amenities include onsite beauticians, devotional services both on and off site, access to hospice care if needed, and regular wellness programs. Services are all about making life easy and maintenance-free, letting residents focus on being active and involved in ways that matter to them, with community events, clubs, and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff is friendly, well-trained, and stick around 24 hours every day, always with the goal of helping residents keep their freedom and dignity as much as possible, no matter how their needs might change.
