Assisted Living at Standifer Place

Assisted Living at Standifer Place sits on a 44-acre campus near Hamilton Place Mall in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with easy access to medical centers like Atrium Imaging Center and Parkridge Valley Adult & Senior Campus, and the campus has walking paths, parks, and inviting common areas where seniors can spend time together or visit with family, and there's all sorts of room types for different needs. The place covers about every kind of care folks might need as they age, like active adult living, independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, home health care that's Medicare-certified, home care services, adult day care, hospice care, and even short-term and long-term rehabilitation, so residents can stay in one familiar place as their needs change. The Health Center at Standifer Place stays ready to help anyone needing non-ambulatory care, diabetic care, or incontinence care, and skilled staff like registered nurses, LPNs, nurse practitioners, and certified nursing assistants are scheduled around the clock, with doctors on campus too, so help's always available when health needs come up, and they work closely with families about Medicaid or other applications if that's needed. There's a strong focus on dementia and Alzheimer's care in a secure environment too, with special spaces for safe living and programs for fall and wound prevention, and they've added all sorts of therapies like speech therapy, occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, and physical therapy to help folks stay as independent as possible, or recover from illnesses and surgery right there without moving to another place. Residents have their own plans for nutrition from the dietary department, including for special health concerns, and there's even a pharmacy on-site. Activities fill most days, with options like arts and crafts, fitness classes for different abilities, group outings, devotional gatherings, and offsite trips; plenty for anyone looking to stay busy or socialize. People who want to keep serving others or growing can join community events, participate in seminars, or even train as Certified Nursing Assistants through the community's programs, and long-term care professionals get support through events and resources from the facility and Tennessee Health Care Association. The home care team delivers non-medical help to people who'd rather stay in their own apartment or need a little extra support, and there are also adult day services for families who care for their elders at home but need a safe place during the day. The campus aims to be safe for visitors and easy to get around, and staff members stay dedicated to care and respect for every resident, whether someone's there for a short stay or calls it home for the long haul.
