The community offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care, along with short-term and respite stays for seniors who need temporary support. The staff at Pelican Pointe is known for being attentive and willing to go above and beyond for residents, available 24 hours a day with licensed nurses, LPNs, and caregivers who help with everything from bathing and dressing to medication management and diabetic care, even providing help for complex needs and memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia. There are sixty-four studio and one-bedroom apartments with private baths and kitchenettes, ranging from 359 to 437 square feet, air-conditioning, cable, and Wi-Fi, plus pet-friendly policies that let residents keep a dog or cat if they want, and wheelchair access throughout the building. Apartments are clean and thoughtfully organized, and shared areas include a dining room, game room, lounge with a fireplace, fitness center, gaming room, garden, computer center, beauty salon, small library, and spa, with outdoor patios furnished with tables, chairs, and umbrellas for relaxing with neighbors.
Residents join a warm, welcoming environment that aims to feel comfortable and a bit like staying over at a relative's house, with a balance of privacy and community. There's always something to do with a busy calendar of onsite and off-site activities, including art classes through the Melody & Masterpiece Program, fitness through Forever Fit, wellness visits, pet programs, gardening, cards, trivia, outings, karaoke, and even virtual trips through Virtual Voyages, plus devotional services and community service projects. Meals are served restaurant-style, using fresh ingredients, and dietary needs like vegetarian, gluten-free, low sodium, and diabetic-friendly meals are accommodated. Residents can take trips to nearby parks, museums, shopping, restaurants, or medical appointments using the community bus or scheduled transportation. There's also on-site therapy with visiting nurses, physical therapy, and personal care services if needed. Specialized memory care programming helps residents feel safe and engaged, with secure areas to prevent wandering and activities to help memory.
Pelican Pointe offers different levels of care, including standby or full help with moving, incontinence support, brain fitness classes, and options for those needing two-person transfers or mechanical lifts. The staff helps coordinate with doctors and provides reminders for grooming and medication. The goal is to create a connected, active place where seniors can age comfortably, get extra care as needs change, and still enjoy a social life with friends or quiet time in their own space. Amenities include housekeeping, linen service, transportation, resident parking, and room service, and the facility has won awards such as U.S. News Best Assisted Living (2024) and Pinnacle Customer Experience (2024). The dining team works closely with residents on meal options to make sure needs and tastes are met. Pelican Pointe emphasizes supportive, kind care and keeps residents connected with newsletters and life enrichment programs tied to their hobbies and past interests. Tours and consultations are available for families wanting to learn more about what the community offers.
