Edgewood Sioux Falls Memory Care sits at 3401 W Ralph Rogers Rd in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, offering services built for people living with memory loss, like Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, where the whole place feels homelike and comfortable, and safety sits front and center with secure areas and handicap-accessible features, even down to sprinkler systems and help with wandering. This place is part of Edgewood Healthcare and focuses mostly on memory care, but offers things like adult day services, assisted living, and short-term stays too, so folks needing different levels of support or a break from home can get what they need. Staff keep watch around the clock, help with dressing, grooming, bathing, and even support for folks who have trouble walking, use wheelchairs, or need incontinence care, while nurses manage medications, wound care, and medical visits, with therapists like occupational therapy, and visits from podiatrists built into the weekly routine.
You'll find programs aimed at keeping minds active, with memory games, art sessions, educational events, wellness programs, and social get-togethers to help people keep friendships and routines, and staff build personalized care plans for each person, adjusting to their needs as conditions change over time. Residents can enjoy property features like common rooms, game rooms, guest parking, Wi-Fi, dining rooms, fitness centers, and even a salon or barbershop, along with cozy kitchens or kitchenettes in certain room types, and every room-whether a studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom assisted living-is kept tidy through regular housekeeping. Meals are provided and served in dining rooms each day, and diets can be tailored for special needs including diabetic care. For those looking at price, memory care studio apartments run $3,000 to $5,000 a month, and nursing home rates go between $5,000 to $8,000 monthly depending on private or shared rooms.
Everything is set up to promote safety, independence, and comfort, letting folks live as independently as possible while getting the help they need, with transportation provided for appointments or outings and support staff always nearby. Medical oversight comes through partnerships with local providers, and activities are aimed at both calming and stimulating, working toward a sense of dignity and meaning in each day. People moving in can ask about things like the waiting list, how billing works, what insurance is accepted, and the details between memory care, assisted living, and skilled nursing options, so folks and their families know what to expect, can take virtual tours to see the place, and can talk with others already living there before deciding. The focus always stays on providing support for people living with memory challenges, giving them ways to stay engaged and safe through every stage.
