Transitions Neighborhood

ISLANDIA WEST

A Gentle Transition From Assisted Living to Memory Care

Moving into a new community can feel overwhelming, especially when memory changes start to appear. The Transitions Neighborhood at Islandia West is designed for residents who are mostly independent but may need a little extra support. In this smaller, close-knit neighborhood, residents receive personalized care, enjoy activities at their own pace, and feel a sense of comfort and security. It’s a gentle way to bridge the step from assisted living to memory care, keeping independence and dignity at the heart of every day.

PERSONALIZED CARE

Helping Residents Thrive Through Every Activity and Program

Activities & Socialization

In the Transitions Neighborhood, activities take place in smaller, focused groups that reduce distractions and create a comfortable, engaging environment. Programs are thoughtfully designed to meet each resident's cognitive level, providing gentle challenges that stimulate the mind. We encourage participation and interaction, helping residents build connections and avoid the isolation that can sometimes happen with memory loss.

Nutrition & Wellness

Proper nutrition can be challenging for residents experiencing memory changes, as they may forget to eat or stay hydrated. In the Transitions Neighborhood, we closely monitor each resident’s meals and fluids, ensuring a balanced diet. Mealtime is also a chance to connect; residents gather in a warm, social setting, enjoying good food and building friendships that foster community.

Specially Trained Staff

Our experienced staff are specially trained to support residents through the confusion, anxiety, and nervousness that can accompany memory changes. The smaller, close-knit neighborhood allows our team to focus on each resident’s unique needs, preferences, and personality, providing personalized care and attention every day.

Specialty Programs

From SafeCare and Staycation to Path to Home, Companion Living, and the GrandFriends Program, each offering is thoughtfully created to enrich daily life, encourage social connection, and provide personalized support for every resident
