Faye Wright Senior Living

Faye Wright Senior Living sits in Salem, Oregon, close to shopping, restaurants, and parks, and offers different care levels, so someone can get independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all in one place. The community is family-owned and run, with 122 total beds, including 70 for memory care, and they have staff who know how to help people with Alzheimer's or dementia, including special training for memory loss and safety features like secure walking paths, exit alerts, and lockable outside areas. You'll find both studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, with some having private or shared spaces and kitchenettes, walk-in showers, and heating and air controls in the rooms, and everything is ADA accessible if someone uses a wheelchair or walker. They offer an activity program for everyone, with staff providing help for daily needs like bathing, dressing, getting around, and taking medicine, and the staff also keep up on training with monthly courses for memory care, so residents get up-to-date support. The IN2L-It's Never 2 Late program is ready for memory care residents, offering them special computer activities, and there are respite apartments for short-term stays. There's also a beauty shop, a place outside to smoke, and Wi-Fi you can use throughout the community, and if someone has a pet, they can move in after paying a deposit and monthly fee, with staff to help care for animals. Faye Wright has a Medicaid contract, accepts hospice care, and can admit new people on weekends. There are community nurses present during business hours and on-call after hours, plus extra help for insulin-dependent diabetics but they can't care for people with unstable diabetes, severe aggressive behavior, feeding tubes, wound vacs, ureterostomy, or those who need a staff person with them all the time. The community comes with features like laundry service, transportation-including wheelchair transport-and even a Hoyer lift and two-person transfers in memory care, plus tray service or community shower/tub access if needed. Meals get served in shared spaces, or someone can have food delivered if needed. The focus stays on helping residents have connections and stay active, with a variety of activities and support as health needs change, all while keeping things simple, safe, and as independent as possible.
