Northwood Meadows provides many types of care for seniors, with assisted living for those who need help with things like bathing, dressing, and managing medications, and they also have a full memory care area for people with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, including private rooms and half-baths in their Medical and Memory Loss Unit, which is divided into four small areas with a total of five private bedrooms each, so families looking for something more personal and secure might notice that, plus, it's a locked area with technology like bracelets that make an alarm if someone tries to wander. They've got staff 24 hours a day, including nurses and medication care managers, and keep a low staff-to-resident ratio, about one staff for every five adults, which probably helps with safety and regular check-ins, and they use trained caregivers or care companions to make sure residents get medication on time and support with personal care, with non-ambulatory care available, including for those who need transfer help or mechanical lifts.
They support aging in place with several care levels, so some people can move in independently while others need more help, and those in independent living get housekeeping, meals, and organized activities, plus, the chef prepares meals daily, and there's communal dining or a private dining room for family visits or special occasions-sometimes they do themed meals too. Seniors with short-term needs can use respite care, and there's hospice care if it's required. The VA benefits assistance and financial guidance might be helpful for many families, and the pricing is all-inclusive with private rooms and bathrooms, studios, and one-bedrooms available.
Residents can bring some pets, enjoy garden patios, or spend time in outdoor and indoor common areas like the Great Room with a fireplace for coffee and gatherings, and those who like activities can join in music groups, game nights, cooking classes, Wii bowling, trivia, wine tasting, or devotional services, and there's always something like social outings, hobbies, and religious services available, plus a full calendar of fitness and wellness programs with equipment for those who want to stay active, and a hair salon or barber is on-site.
Safety features include a gated entrance, alarm systems, secured grounds, and an emergency response system for those who can use it, and the whole place is wheelchair accessible with special showers, wide doors, and easy access to things like parking and guest areas, with extra help for residents prone to wandering or major behavior issues in memory care. Northwood Meadows also provides rehabilitation and therapy-physical, occupational, or speech therapy on-site-and has visiting health specialists, plus help with diabetic and incontinence care.
Daily life is eased by in-suite climate controls, private closets, scenic views from the rooms, all utilities except phone, cable TV in both common and private areas, Wi-Fi, and a friendly staff known around the place for being helpful and cheerful, so people often say it feels homelike and welcoming. They offer transportation, guest parking, overnight guest rooms, and can support family visits, which means friends and family are almost always welcome. The state licenses this community for Adult Foster Care, and leadership keeps it stable, managed by Kelly Richmond, with a steady 8 AM to 8 PM schedule, and staff who've received awards for their efforts, including for quality of care and their Assisted Living Committee work. Northwood Meadows works to make a family-like setting where seniors, from the more independent to those with complex needs, can have privacy, support, and a friendly place to live.
