The Cottages of Boise Assisted Living and Memory Care homes are located at the end of a quiet, country lane. The Cottages of Boise has compassionate caregivers who are specially trained to care for seniors with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia that require personalized care. Respite and adult day care are also available. Each of The Cottages assisted living homes is licensed by the State of Idaho.
The Cottages is privileged to select from the best caregivers in each community where we have assisted living homes. Some of the critical elements in creating a foundation for proper assisted living care that we practice at The Cottages include:
Qualified Assisted Living Caregivers
We conduct thorough criminal background checks and drug testing on all of our caregivers to ensure that we hire the best. Every caregiver receives training when they join The Cottages and ongoing training throughout their length of service.
Caregivers Providing Personal Care
By limiting the number of residents to 16 in each home, The Cottages provides a higher caregiver-to-resident ratio than other facilities. This provides our assisted living caregivers the opportunity to develop an intimate relationship with each resident they care for. Our residents benefit from the absolute best in assisted living care.
Dedication of the Administrator
Each of The Cottages homes is operated by a licensed residential care facility administrator. The Cottages is proud to have an outstanding group of administrators who personally oversee the care of each of our residents and guide our staff to excellence. All are experts in their field. Our administrators exemplify compassion, dedication, and professionalism. The average length of stay for our Administrators is 9 years.
Commitment of Senior Management
The Cottages knows that in order to properly care for residents it takes happy, trained, and engaged caregivers. The senior management team ensures this by consistent involvement in the development of our staff. They also remain actively involved in the daily operations of our assisted living homes. All are available by phone or email to any employee, resident, or family member. The team meets each week to discuss new strategies and seek to continually improve how we provide care to our residents and staff. Each month the senior management team meets with the administrators to provide professional development in a continual and ongoing effort to make us better at what we do. Opportunities for improvement and additional training programs are shared with everyone in attendance. The administrators share ideas and solutions that serve to strengthen the entire team.
Memory Care Services
We understand that caring for a loved one with dementia is hard on families. When you’re searching for a Memory Care home you will quickly find that not all facilities are created equal. It is our mission to provide a loving environment with an individualized treatment plan to meet the specific needs and desires of each resident.
We raise the bar in Memory Care. We keep our residents safe and secure by providing coded locks and gates. These things alone do not make a quality Memory Care home. We have developed a systematized Alzheimer’s and Dementia training program that qualifies our Care Givers to provide the best assistance for our residents suffering from Alzheimer’s and other dementia’s. Our program is continuously updated to ensure our Care Givers are utilizing the latest knowledge and techniques and providing therapeutic activities.
Adult Daycare & Respite
We know the job of caring for a loved one can be taxing and extremely challenging. Sometimes a caregiver just needs some time away. Allow our adult daycare and respite program to assist you.
