Fountain Park Assisted Living and Memory Care

ALZHEIMER’S AND DEMENTIA CARE

Our Memory Care Neighborhood provides our residents who have special needs with a safe, secure, stimulating and soothing environment. All of our employees in the Memory Care Neighborhood are specially trained to provide exceptional care for our residents with memory impairments and we have nurses available 24-hours a day. Upon admission and updated periodically, we will develop and implement an individualized care plan that addresses each resident’s unique needs. Our staff will engage our residents in every day activities and dedicated programming that they can feel pleasure and success in and which will help promote their self-esteem.

RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES & SOCIAL PROGRAMS

There are always enjoyable things to do and places to visit when you are a resident at Fountain Park. Exercise classes, Wii games, entertainment, computer classes, contests and movies are just a few of the many activities our residents enjoy without leaving home. Families and friends are also invited to our Holiday celebrations. Field trips, shopping excursions and restaurant outings keep our Coach on the road each week.

Sometimes just remembering to take medication is tricky, much less refilling prescriptions. Our staff takes the worry out of medication management. A pharmacy makes daily deliveries to Fountain Park and our staff assist residents with their medication needs.
