The Landmark Center is a premier assisted living community in Stuart, Virginia. It is within enjoyable Patrick County which is part of the Old Dominion State.
The Landmark Center was designed for people needing assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADL's) but wishing to live as independently as possible for as long as possible. Assisted living exists to bridge the gap between independent living and nursing homes. Residents are not able to fully live by themselves but do not require constant care either. We offer help with ADL's such as eating, bathing, dressing, laundry, housekeeping, and assistance with medications.
The Landmark Center will create a service plan for each individual resident upon admission. The service plan details the personalized services required by the resident and provided by the facility. The plan is updated regularly to assure that the resident received the appropriate care as his or her condition changes. Assisted living is not an alternative to a nursing home, but an intermediate level of long term care appropriate for many seniors.
Every person should be able to master the basics of daily living. Yet as we age, the body and mind lose some of the skills that are needed for optimum survival: balance, dexterity, motor skills, and an intuitive awareness of the body’s signals.
Assessing how well a person performs ADLs (activities of daily living) determine the type and amount of care that is needed. Our caring and compassionate staff is here to support you or your family member in achieving these benchmarks:
- Bathing: Taking a bath or a shower for daily personal hygiene.
- Grooming: Washing hair and shaving as needed.
- Dressing: Choosing appropriate garments and being able to dress and undress.
- Transferring: Walking from place to place as necessary, or at the very least, being capable of transferring from the bed to the walker or the wheelchair and back.
- Toileting: Maintaining control of bowels and bladder or independently managing incontinence issues.
- Eating: Taking in enough nourishment and properly chewing and swallowing food.
- Oral Hygiene: Brushing teeth or taking care of dentures.
We named our program Serenity because we are committed to providing residents with memory loss a calm and peaceful setting. A Serene Life.
