Cottage Glen Assisted Living

Cottage Glen Assisted Living sits a little over two miles outside of Tooele, Utah, close to the Mountain West Medical Center and within walking distance of healthcare offices, and is a large, licensed assisted living and memory care community for up to 56 residents, aiming to keep things feeling home-like with cottage-style living and gardens. The building has a variety of room layouts, all of them with options for private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi, and you'll also find shared spaces like a library, art room, game room, spa, fitness room, and a community theater along with several outdoor walking paths and gathering spots. Caregivers provide help with bathing, dressing, transfers, medication, and personal care, while nursing staff are on duty for 12 to 16 hours each day and caregivers stay awake and available around the clock, which is useful for folks who need assistance in the night or help with insulin, incontinence, or two-person transfers if required, and the site follows a wellness plan to keep residents active. Memory care staff work to reduce confusion and support residents who have dementia or Alzheimer's, using extra safety measures and personalized plans to keep things safe and calm, and anyone on a special diet for diabetes or blood pressure can get home-cooked meals made to doctor specifications, always three a day, with snacks and all-day dining. The community brings in music therapy and animal visits as part of the activities program, which mixes in board games, offsite trips, devotional groups, movie nights, book clubs, gardening, and fitness or creative time to help prevent boredom and support mental health, while friendly, well-liked staff-including mobile stylists and salon services-try to make daily life social and comfortable. Residents get scheduled transportation for doctor visits, errands, or spiritual activities and there's parking for those who still drive. Daily tasks like housekeeping, laundry, and move-in help are available, along with a concierge desk for special requests. Cottage Glen is privately owned and sticks to regulations set by the Utah Department of Social Services, with an overall community rating of 8.7 out of 10, the highest in Tooele, and it's well known for its friendly staff and positive, engaging atmosphere for seniors wanting either active independent living or extra support as needed.
