According to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, about 24% of the state population is over age 60. By 2043, this number is projected to grow to 26%.
If you’re looking into getting trusted senior support services for yourself or a loved one, look no further than TerraBella Hendersonville. Read on to learn what makes us stand out from other communities offering assisted living in Henderson County.
Personalized Care in Assisted Living
Assisted living is the most common type of senior care. In these communities, seniors with mobility or memory issues get help with daily tasks. Compassionate caregivers will help with:
- Choosing clothes
- Getting dressed
- Bathing
- Showering
- Brushing teeth
- Combing hair
- Meal planning
- Meal preparation with fresh ingredients
- Using the bathroom
- Managing medication
- Coordinating with pharmacies
- Managing injections like insulin and glucose
- Moving around the apartment
- Navigating community amenities despite mobility-related challenges
Not all seniors will need help with every one of these tasks. Some residents will need more support than others.
Additionally, no two residents will have the same support needs. Some may get around well but struggle to remember things; others may be sharp but wheelchair-bound.
This is why individually-tailored care plans are crucial for Hendersonville, NC, senior living. Our compassionate caregivers will discuss each new resident’s needs with them and their families.
We’ll:
- Discuss what the new resident needs additional help with
- Determine the underlying reasons for these struggles and figure out how to address these causes
- Talk about what your loved one can do independently each day
- Discuss how we can support them as they complete tasks on their own
- Draft a written care plan that’s specifically designed to meet your loved one’s unique needs
This ensures that each resident gets the care they need to thrive. It also enhances autonomy by letting them do things on their own whenever possible.
Memory Care Communities: Dementia Care for Seniors
Since no two seniors’ needs are identical, TerraBella Hendersonville offers multiple levels of care to our residents. Traditional assisted living is ideal for many families, but others have more specialized needs.
Memory care is specifically designed for seniors struggling with severe cognitive issues. These include dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s disease.
Memory care community staff are:
- Specifically experienced in working with seniors who have cognitive decline
- Constantly trained in the best practices for helping these residents thrive
- Uniquely capable of meeting the needs of residents with dementia symptoms like confusion, disorientation, and aggression
This ensures that your loved one will receive care from someone who understands what they’re going through. Compassionate engagement is easier since caregivers will know how to communicate with and get to know TerraBella memory care residents.
Our memory care program offers a holistic approach to senior wellness. Our residents enjoy:
- Purpose-driven sensory activities that stimulate the brain in multiple ways
- Puzzles and games that are made to boost cognition and short-term memory
- Reflective moments and reminiscence therapy to bolster long-term memory and critical thinking
- Group activities that give all seniors a role in completing their tasks, fostering a sense of individuality
- Chef-prepared meals tailor-made to boost brain function
- Staff who highlight their strength to boost their confidence and self-esteem
Exclusive Programs for Senior Living
Many seniors are reluctant to move into a senior living community. They incorrectly assume that doing so will limit their independence.
However, trusted senior support services actually keep older adults independent for longer. They ensure that residents have all their basic needs met, so they don’t need to worry about their wellness. This, along with the promise of assistance if something goes wrong, means that they can navigate the best parts of daily life independently.
Our exclusive programs are part of what makes this independence worth the support!
