Spring Ridge features rooms with private bathrooms, emergency call buttons, cable ready service, smoke detectors, and a sprinkler system, and you can see they've thought about safety quite a bit, with wheelchair access and emergency nursing on hand, not to mention planned activities, religious services, and family gatherings, so no one feels left out. The dining at Spring Ridge offers restaurant-style service, open breakfast, room service, guest meals, special menus for folks who need gluten-free or low-sodium choices, international cuisine, and you can even have a private dining room if you're celebrating, and there's always snacks available for any time hunger strikes. There's a nice variety of common spaces, such as a formal living room, a TV room, a library, and computer rooms, plus outdoor lawns, gardens, porches, and a courtyard, so residents and their pets have plenty to do without needing to go far, and pets are welcome as long as they get along with others. Spring Ridge helps people with daily needs, and support services range from laundry and housekeeping to transportation and help with medications, and they offer outpatient therapy (physical, occupational, and speech), psychological consultations, incontinence care, memory care, diabetic support, nutrition help, and even specialty wound or respiratory care, all under the Americare Therapy Solutions program, which folks with Medicare Part B can use for ongoing therapy. The home health options mean nurses and therapists can come to your room if you have trouble getting around, and admission counselors are available to walk families through the paperwork and care choices, aiming to keep it as smooth as possible. There's carports and resident parking for those who still drive, Wi-Fi in the common areas, and a beauty shop onsite for a little pampering, so folks don't have to run all around town. Respite care, hospice, and short-term stays are available too. Spring Ridge has a reported average price of about $3,840 per month, and they try to give residents a welcoming place that feels like home, keeping routines simple but making sure health, safety, and comfort come first.
