AutumnGrove Cottage™ is a sixteen resident, private-pay, assisted living home specializing in care for senior adults with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia-related illnesses. It is smaller, homelike in design and appearance, and personal. With only sixteen residents, the staff and families get to know each other in a very personal and intimate way.
We honor our families and proactively communicate and support them through this difficult time. We help families understand the importance of home care and hospice services allowing residents to live at AutumnGrove Cottage™ through end of life.
We honor the resident for the person that they are today, as well as who they were yesterday. We respect their dignity, optimize their individuality and focus on their remaining strengths and abilities. Everything we do centers around Alzheimer’s and memory care, from our building design, staffing requirements, to our training and education programs.
The AutumnGrove Cottage at our Heights location is not only unique in Alzheimer’s care, but also unique in its exterior design in comparison to our other cottages. In order for this cottage to blend in with the old town atmosphere of The Heights neighborhood, this cottage was designed with a Victorian feel complete with gingerbread adornments and sitting on piers. This cottage has been overwhelmingly welcomed by the Heights community with neighbors stopping by to visit, having coffee with the residents and bringing baked goods for snacks. There is a lovely veranda in the back where residents often spend afternoons doing brain stimulating activities or having afternoon tea.
Inside The Heights Cottage, you will find a manager and caregivers who go the extra mile in caring for their residents. From playing Frank Sinatra music all day to letting the residents help bake cookies, these caregivers love having the residents involved in everything. You will also find supportive family members in The Heights Cottage who visit their loved ones everyday.
