Flexible and Comprehensive Care Levels 

At Northwoods Memory Care Suites, we recognize that the needs of individuals with memory-related conditions can evolve over time. To address this, we offer five distinct levels of care that can adapt to the changing needs of residents. Whether an individual requires minimal assistance with daily tasks or more comprehensive support, Northwoods Memory Care Suites ensures that our care options are flexible, compassionate, and comprehensive. 

The care levels are thoughtfully designed to provide the right level of support while allowing residents to age in place with dignity and comfort. By offering different levels of care, Northwoods Memory Care Suites can provide individualized attention and services to meet the unique needs of each resident and ensure their overall well-being. 

Personalized Assessment and Care Plans 

Before a resident moves into Northwoods Memory Care Suites, a comprehensive assessment is conducted by our dedicated owner/nurse, Sherri. This assessment takes into consideration the individual’s physical and cognitive health, medical history, preferences, and daily routines. The goal is to gain a thorough understanding of the resident’s unique needs and challenges, which informs the development of a tailored care plan. 

The care plan outlines the specific services and support that the resident will receive, addressing medical needs, assistance with daily activities, nutrition, and individualized engagement to promote mental and emotional well-being. It serves as a roadmap for providing the best quality of life for each resident, ensuring that their individual needs are met with compassion and professionalism. 

Supportive Transition Process 

Transitioning to a memory care suite can be challenging for both residents and their families. Northwoods Memory Care Suites recognizes this and offers support and guidance to make the process as smooth as possible. Our team helps introduce the resident to their new environment, helping them acclimate and feel at home. 

Once settled into their memory care suite, residents receive around-the-clock care and support from a dedicated staff. The care plan is regularly reviewed and updated to ensure that the resident’s evolving needs are met. Northwoods Memory Care Suites aims to create a nurturing and comfortable environment that promotes independence and maintains the resident’s dignity. 

Family Involvement and Communication 

At Northwoods Memory Care, families are considered essential contributors to the well-being of the residents. They are encouraged to be actively involved in their loved one’s care through regular visits, open communication, and active participation. This ensures that the resident feels connected, supported, and surrounded by those who care for them. 

The dedicated staff at Northwoods Memory Care Suites recognizes the importance of family involvement and values the relationships formed between residents, their families, and the care team. Open communication channels are fostered to keep families informed about their loved one’s well-being and encourage collaboration in their care.
