Community size: Large (26-100)
Welcome to Courtyard Estates of Walcott, the area’s premiere assisted living community. At Courtyard Estates, our goal is to provide professional, compassionate services for older adults while promoting independence, which allows our tenants to maintain or improve their current lifestyle.
Courtyard Estates offers unique lifestyle choices, allowing each tenant to maintain privacy, autonomy and security. Our certified staff is professionally trained and educated in providing the highest quality of care and services, which promote a safe, loving and healthy environment. Our healthcare provisions allow for a wide range of services within a competitively priced all-inclusive monthly rate. We are committed to providing a lifestyle of quality and value defined by you.
Courtyard Estates of Walcott is a senior living community that bridges the gap between independent living and nursing home care. Assisted living is an alternative level of quality housing appropriate for many seniors who choose not to live alone. At Courtyard Estates, we will create a service plan for each tenant upon admission. The service plan is updated regularly to assure that the tenant receives the appropriate care as his or her condition changes.
It is our goal for all area seniors to take advantage of the full range of services available. If continuing care needs evolve to include a higher level of nursing services and relocation is imminent, our trained professionals will be there to assist with the transition.
Every tenant is an individual and can expect specialized care in a pleasing, stimulating environment. With safety features in place for tenants’ protection, every Betty’s Garden features an open floor plan designed to encourage interaction and independence. This affords tenants the freedom to move around, interact and enjoy each day, all under the supervision of a trained coordinator. We limit the occupancy of our intimate home setting so that our specialized experts in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia care can completely focus on the individual’s total care. Our caregivers are finely tuned to each tenant’s preferences and personality to notice nuances in behavior changes and to anticipate needs. Medications are accurately managed to ensure proper and timely dosage.
Betty’s Garden provides a safe and secure environment for those with Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
It’s your family surrounded by ours. Our services include:
- Weekly apartment cleaning

A little respite goes a long way toward a healthy life balance.
Short breaks in the ongoing routine of caregiving can rejuvenate the caregiver with a well-deserved vacation, by allowing more time for family and friends, or with just getting a good night’s sleep!
Our expert caretakers are specially trained in Alzheimer’s and dementia care issues. Our professional staff is available 24-hours a day to give prompt care, so our attention is always focused on our tenants. Medications are accurately managed to ensure proper and timely dosage. Tenants are carefully monitored to keep hydrated. Three balanced meals and home-baked snacks, planned by a registered dietitian, are lovingly prepared right in our own kitchens each day. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided on a daily basis in all of our memory care facilities.
Betty’s Garden is an ideal caregiving alternative for the time when home care is no longer the optimal environment for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias. Our Coming Home program was designed exclusively for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, and has proven a welcome answer for tenants and families alike.
Coming Home is a comprehensive enrichment program for Betty’s Garden, which is designed to ensure an all-encompassing, fulfilling experience for every tenant. It fosters daily interaction with tenants of Betty’s Garden in these areas: creative / expressive, physical, social, cognitive, and emotional / spiritual. Coming Home utilizes a hands-on approach to daily engagement where the act of doing enforces memory and physical health; sparks creativity and expression; promotes social interaction; and ensures overall well-being. The Coming Home schedule provides structure and depth to the home’s daily routine, with the opportunity to individualize activities based on each tenant’s uniqueness and the distinctive atmosphere of each home. Coming Home provides a sense of consistency and balance; uses cues to establish different times of day; and rotates busy times with periods of rest. Set routines help create an almost automatic motion, and reduce stress and worry for tenants, families, and caregivers.
