Oak Hills Terrace Memory Care is a premier community located in Tyler, Texas, dedicated to providing specialized care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other memory loss conditions. The community serves residents from across Smith County, Texas, and beyond, creating a welcoming environment for anyone seeking compassionate, specialized support. Oak Hills Terrace stands out for its commitment to helping residents reach their full potential through innovative programs and attentive care that exceeds what traditional assisted living options can offer. The focus at Oak Hills Terrace is on fostering creativity, independence, and choice among its residents, ensuring that everyone feels at home and supported at every step.
The community offers a secure and nurturing environment where residents have access to a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet a wide variety of needs. Assistance with medication management, bathing, dressing, grooming, and other activities of daily living is readily available, with care plans customized for each individual before they move in and updated on a biannual basis or sooner if necessary. The care team, overseen by the Executive Director Corey Singley and supported by Resident Care Coordinators, RNs, Certified Activity Director, Certified Assisted Living Manager, Certified Food Managers, and medical technicians, works around the clock to deliver physical, emotional, and spiritual support 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This resident-centered approach provides peace of mind for families, knowing their loved ones are receiving the highest level of compassion and expertise.
A hallmark of Oak Hills Terrace is its award-winning Spark® program, an engaging, research-based approach inspired by Montessori principles. The Spark® program aims to give residents meaningful ways to contribute, stay productive, and feel needed by drawing on their remaining skills and strengths. Participation in the program is always based on individual interests and abilities, allowing residents to form connections with others and experience a genuine sense of purpose and joy. For example, residents at Oak Hills Terrace look forward each year to creating unique barbecue sauces from selecting flavors to designing labels, mixing ingredients, and bottling the final product. This project not only engages their creativity but also brings together the community for a special cause, such as raising funds for the Alzheimer’s Association Walk.
Residents at Oak Hills Terrace enjoy a host of thoughtfully designed amenities to enhance their quality of life. The community features spacious private and semi-private rooms, limited to 48 residents for a more personalized experience.
