Residents can choose various room types, including studios in memory care and one- or two-bedroom setups in assisted living, all with private bathrooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, kitchenettes, and furnishings, and the rooms are large and easy to get around, which is important if someone uses a wheelchair, plus, there's an emergency alert system in place. Meals are made on-site with options for special diets like gluten-free, low or no sodium, diabetic needs, and family-style or restaurant-style dining from a professional chef, including all-day dining, and pets are welcome, so cats and dogs can stay with their owners. There's also help with laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, transportation, and concierge services, and family members can get support too.
Memory care at Villas of Holly Brook uses therapies and programs to help reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and there are enrichment programs with light therapy and sensory activities to keep residents engaged and stimulated, while the secure environment and 24-hour call system make sure anyone with dementia or mild cognitive impairment is always looked after, and the schedule includes devotional services for those who want them. The community also offers a fitness room, spa/wellness space, libraries, walking paths, and a movie area, plus on-site beautician services for hair and grooming, and there's parking for visitors and residents, making visits a bit easier. The campus shares space with Reflections Memory Care and focuses on dignity and a calm, supportive environment, and many people say the rooms are spacious, the building is new, and the staff care about making everyone feel at home, which may be why it's earned a high rating from reviews and recognition as a Best of Senior Living community.
