Woodlands Creek serves older adults through independent living, assisted living, and memory care, and there's a long list of things going on over there, so for people who like a variety of amenities, they'll find things like a library, TV lounge, movie theater, pub, piano, woodworking shop, fitness center with yoga and stretching, gardens for both walking and watching butterflies, a hot tub spa for relaxing, and staff-led arts, crafts, and music activities that keep folks' minds and hands busy, and for those interested in faith, weekly Catholic services are available along with other devotional gatherings both in the building and offsite. The dining here looks like restaurant-style, with professional chefs making meals, private dining rooms for small gatherings, and guest meals when family or friends come by, plus nutrition accommodations for special diets, so no one's left out. People can use kitchenettes in their apartments and enjoy housekeeping, laundry, and linen changes, with building maintenance included, and the beauty salon is on the grounds if folks need a haircut or style. Woodlands Creek allows dogs and cats, and there's even space and paths for pets to roam and meet others.
There's help throughout the day and night, with 24-hour staff on site, a nurse available, and a doctor on call, and the team handles things like medication reminders, behavior management, and support for bathing, dressing, and transfers, which is important for people needing a little more help or for those who are non-ambulatory and need things like mechanical lifts. The memory care section is secured for those with Alzheimer's or other dementia, with special technology like alarm bracelets for residents likely to wander, and the staff is trained to help residents who may act out or have behavioral needs.
Transportation comes in several forms, with some complimentary rides for doctor visits, shopping, or outings, and other transportation available at a cost, plus the community sits near bus lines for public transit. For families and visitors, there's parking and guest spaces, and the staff encourages family involvement, aiming to create a setting where everyone feels included. People can move in while healthy and active in independent living, then stay as care needs change, since Woodlands Creek offers respite care, hospice, and continuing care options in the same community, so folks don't have to start over somewhere else if they need more help. Access to physical, occupational, and speech therapists is available, and the activity director coordinates recreational and educational events every day. Safety comes from features like secure entry, staff on duty around the clock, and health professionals who drop in regularly. Residents can pay by insurance, check, and Medicare, so families don't have to navigate unusually complex payment plans. The focus stays on daily life, plenty of things to do, decent food, and steady care for people as they grow older in place.
