The community provides several types of care, including independent living for healthy and active seniors, assisted living for those needing help with things like bathing, dressing, and taking their medicine, and a memory care section built for people with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, set up to help reduce confusion and wandering. The memory care area's in its own building, and staff use technological tools like bracelets to help keep track of residents who might try to leave the safe area or have major behavior concerns, so folks who need more supervision get it.
