About This Community

Our Story

Senior Care Plaza provides a nurturing home and high-quality care for older adults. Since 1992, Senior Care Plaza has operated as a family-owned care facility created to provide residence with excellent care that encompasses the body, mind and spirit. Senior Care Plaza was designed to provide seniors with a home away from home experience that allows seniors to be themselves and to enjoy their senior years with dignity and independence. We encourage continued independence through a tailored plan of individual wellness and personal care. This approach is well received by our seniors, and is delivered by our big-hearted team that encourages and champions our seniors. Fine-tuning our senior’s individual needs and delivering those services to our seniors is what makes Senior Care Plaza a premier facility.

Our Philosophy

At Senior Care Plaza, you will find a loving, friendly and home-like environment. Within this lovely community residents are assured of privacy and yet are only steps away from activities and companionship. Our focus is on creating a supportive and nurturing environment thus enabling each resident to be more carefree while having an opportunity to engage in meaningful activity. Senior Care Plaza residents enjoy peace of mind knowing that opportunities for optimizing their health, wellness and convenience await them.

Life at Senior Care

Senior Care Plaza offers seniors struggling with the burden of maintaining their home a comfortable home. With respect for their privacy and dignity, we offer assistance with daily activities such as medications, eating, bathing, and mobility. Our 24-hour care facility provides meals, social activities, housekeeping, and medical management, all in a secure environment. Senior Living is dedicated to understanding and responding to the individual needs of our residents. Seniors can enjoy a rewarding lifestyle that promotes independence. The good life begins by choosing from one of the suites that is best suited for you. We provide comprehensive support tailored to your needs; maintain your independence, but know that assisted living services are available.

Assessments

Each resident is unique and receives an individual assessment as part of their admission process. Assessments are documented in a Personal Care Plan which is reviewed by family members. Assessments are reviewed on a periodic basis to keep care at the appropriate level.

Our specially designed Memory Care program and person-centered approach provide a safe, familiar, and supportive environment for residents living with cognitive challenges brought on by Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Person-Centered Approach

Understanding the stories and backgrounds of each resident enables our experienced staff to create personalized memory care plans including multi-sensory experiences and exercises that are unique to each individual. We understand the frustrations often associated with memory loss and work one-on-one with our residents to create a sense of belonging and purpose.

Memory Care Activities

Our therapeutic memory care activities are intentionally designed to stimulate memories and encourage residents to use their existing skills. Activities include:

Music Therapy
Gardening
Nature Walks
Aerobic and Strengthening Exercise
Art & Music Programs
Cooking Classes
Structured Activities and Outings
Scrapbooking
Flower Arranging
Card Games

Supportive Environment

Senior Care Plaza provides a safe and home-like atmosphere where residents living with memory loss can enjoy their freedom and mobility. Using visual reminders and gentle guidance, we provide the appropriate level of support at every stage of memory care. Whether it’s a visit with family or a structured group activity, we help residents celebrate their daily successes and live each day to its fullest.

Brain-Healthy Foods

As part of our holistic approach to memory care, we offer residents delicious and brain-healthy menu options prepared by a licensed dietician to help maintain their cognitive health and overall wellness. Our residents also enjoy our “Open Dining” concept and the ability to dine at their leisure from 7am to 7pm daily.

When I moved my mom into the facility, everyone was so pleasant. The food selection was quite impressive. Other places, I visited only had 2 options to choose from, but here there are many options. The activities calendar was full of games to simulate the mind and mom's favorite, bingo. I feel comfortable that since I can't care for my mom, she is well cared for here.

My cousin is at Senior Care Plaza. So far, it seems great, and she's happy. They are treating her well. The deciding factors were that it was within her price range, which was great, and it's a decent place. It's on a busy street, which I didn't like too much, but it's OK. From what she says, they have a beauty shop, a beautician and a manicurist come in, and they have physical therapy available that she uses. So far everything has been good. The people have been very nice, and they escort her if she has a doctor's appointment. I have to call and make sure that someone is available to go with her. They have people there who can act as a companion and so far, it's been a good experience. They are doing a good job. When I was at the facility, COVID protocols were in effect, so I really couldn't go in, but from what I saw, it was well maintained, and the people were very nice. The only thing I'd give a "one" rating to is the food, and I heard her complaining about that, but she was pleased with the rest of it.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. The staff is verbally abusive to residents. They lose medication. When there is a concern or problem it never gets addresses. They fluff people off. the aids are cruel to the residents. They don't give the proper care to the residents. Make then lay in soiled garments and not attend to them when needed.

This is a terrible place. I moved my father out of the facility after about 1 month. They are completely unprofessional and there is a total lack of communication between staff members. I can't believe that they are licensed. If you care about your loved one, do not use this facility.

Senior Care Plaza is not fancy, but it's very well-priced. Everybody seems very nice and the facility is very clean and well-maintained. They're taking good care of the residents. My dad is in the memory care unit and it's a locked, separate wing. They have a dining and lounge room, a little kitchen where the residents have access to snacks and drinks whenever they want, the rooms are clean and completely furnished, and they do all the laundry, provide food, and they help with clothing. Most of the staff has been very nice, kind, and work very hard.

Senior Care Plaza was beautiful. The staff was really pleasant. The rooms were very clean, well maintained, and very nice. The grounds were really nice, too. The location is fine. It’s in a main thoroughfare, but it isn’t hard to get in or out. I was very impressed.

Overall I found this place to be acceptable. There was a bathroom in every room, a very nice and seemingly competent nurse, and a clean comfortable environment. The food wasn't very good, but not horrible either, nothing fancy. The patients who lived there that I met overall seemed happy, which is the main reason I gave this place 4 stars instead of 3. It just seemed a bit "blah" and boring...The staff seemed caring enough, but nothing jumped out at me, nothing made me go wow, nothing made me want to put my parent in this place, or go here myself someday. It seemed like a place where old people were just waiting to die...but like i said, the patients there seemed happy, so who am I to judge. I would just like a little more activity or option of activity for the price. I think this place has a lot of the basics needed to be a great place to put a family member, I have no doubt my parent would be safe and well taken care of. It just didn't "wow" me.
