Courtyard Manor is a senior living community that provides both assisted living and specialized memory care for people over 50, with a focus on those living with Alzheimer's, dementia, and different behavioral health care needs, and the community's split into four separate, one-story buildings with about twenty residents each, with staff teams trained to handle unique behaviors, and the grounds are landscaped with courtyards and front porches so residents can relax outside when the weather's nice, and the whole property's barrier-free and wheelchair accessible to help people with mobility issues get around. Staff work in teams and tend to stay a long while, so residents see familiar faces and routines stay steady, and care plans are custom-built based on pre-admission assessments, adapting as a person's needs change over time, with medication help, bathing and incontinence care, two-person transfers, and even mechanical lifts for those who can't walk, plus help with diabetes, monitoring blood sugar, and reminders but staff can't actually inject insulin. There's 24-hour supervision, nurses on staff, medical and psychiatric doctors available round the clock, and the emergency call system in rooms and bathrooms means someone can get help fast if needed, and there's always staff right in the buildings around the clock so nobody's ever left without care, even during emergencies.
Memory care happens in a fully secured, purpose-built building, with technology like bracelets to help keep residents who tend to wander safe, and the facility's set up to manage behaviors like OCD, yelling, toileting issues, agitation, verbal aggression, wandering, and those at risk for elopement-staff receive training for handling these situations and know how to react when things get tough. For anyone needing more, there's an option to pay extra for one-on-one care and help with more personal needs. Rooms come furnished at no extra cost, with options for private or companion suites, all with private bathrooms that have walk-in showers, safety bars, and accessible tubs. All rooms are cable and phone ready, and there's free high-speed internet and satellite TV, plus indoor and outdoor common spaces like a library, fireplaced lounge, piano, and raised gardening beds, and residents can keep cats or dogs with staff help for pet care.
Meals are served restaurant-style with anytime dining, room service, and menus that can accommodate special diets like gluten-free, low sodium, and low sugar, so residents don't have to worry about meal prep, and guest meals are welcome. Activities include exercise groups, stretching, yoga, art, brain games, gardening, pet programs, community outings, bingo, singing groups, cooking classes, trivia, and more, with both indoor and outdoor events to keep minds and bodies active, and devotional services, counseling, and a beauty salon are onsite for support and comfort. Transportation is offered-sometimes at no cost, sometimes for a fee-and there's resident parking, so appointments and outings are manageable, and seniors can leave for local events and trips.
Courtyard Manor supports people as they age and as their needs change, offering respite, hospice, and the ability to age in place, so residents often don't need to move again, and the care teams provide dignity, respect, and a family-like setting that tries to make everyone comfortable and safe, even those with very challenging needs. The staff use the "Here & Now Approach" to meet people where they are, focusing on comfort and understanding over correcting memory lapses, and the entire environment feels peaceful and well-kept, sitting close to nature, and many people find a sense of sanctuary here. The facility accepts private pay, social security, and veteran's benefits, among other payment options, with various fees and room types like studios and two-bedrooms. Outdoor smoking's allowed, and there are plenty of common spaces to enjoy time alone or with friends. This community takes pride in being straightforward, providing consistent care, and working to support both the physical and behavioral health of its residents, especially those other places might turn away because of their needs.
