Woodlands Memory Care of Farmington is distinguished as the first and only purpose-built memory care community in Franklin County designed exclusively for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other memory impairments. Established as part of Woodlands Senior Living’s expansion in 2017, this community was thoughtfully created to address the unique and evolving needs of seniors requiring specialized memory care. Its design integrates the most successful concepts in memory loss support, providing a secured and comforting environment carefully crafted to promote safety, dignity, and quality of life for its residents.
In addition to the dedicated memory care community, Woodlands Senior Living of Farmington features distinctive living options for seniors, fostering a continuum of care. Assisted living is available for those who may need help with activities of daily living, offering a gracious and supportive setting with a wide array of lifestyle opportunities. Independent living is also provided at Park Residences, a collection of private retirement apartments. Residents at Park Residences benefit from a basic package of services, such as restaurant-style dining, housekeeping, scheduled transportation, and health and wellness programs, while retaining the flexibility to add services à la carte or select bundled packages based on personal preferences.
Within the memory care community itself, accommodations are available in both private and double-occupancy rooms, with a total of twelve private rooms and twelve double-occupancy rooms. This structure allows for flexibility to meet differing individual needs, as some residents experiencing anxiety when living alone may derive comfort from sharing a room with a roommate. A month-to-month rental agreement ensures residents and their families retain flexibility, with monthly rental fees calculated on a daily rate determined by room type and occupancy.
Woodlands Memory Care of Farmington employs a diverse, well-trained staff to provide a comprehensive range of support services tailored to each resident. Staff training is extensive and ongoing, encompassing essential topics such as fire safety, infection control, resident rights, and areas specific to memory impairment care. There is also an established partnership with a local provider, offering onsite access to skilled nursing and therapy services for those who might need them, though residents retain the freedom to use alternative providers of their choice.
The admission process is designed to be thorough and considerate of both the prospective resident’s needs and the smoothness of the transition. Following submission of an application, Woodlands’ staff conducts a comprehensive assessment to ensure the community is well-positioned to meet the individual’s requirements and support the best possible quality of life. For those requiring financial assistance, Woodlands Memory Care of Farmington participates in a Provider Agreement enabling acceptance of a limited number of residents whose stay is subsidized, and some long-term care insurance policies may also cover residential care expenses.
