Aden Senior Living

At 1211 West Granada Boulevard in Ormond Beach, Aden Senior Living offers 2 levels of care: assisted living and memory care. There is no independent living on site, so the community fits a family whose parent already needs some daily help or is starting to show memory loss. Thrive Senior Living operates Aden. Trained staff are on hand around the clock, and the aim is to help with routines while leaving residents as much independence as they can manage.

Assisted living covers help with daily routines, along with linen and housekeeping service, and meals are served restaurant style. Aden also lists premium assisted living apartments, its largest layouts, with a full kitchen and in-home laundry, meant for a resident who still likes to cook now and then but wants meals and staff close by. Floor plans run from compact to roomy, and apartments get plenty of natural light.

Memory care follows a program called TRIO, which brings the resident, the family and the care team together around a shared plan for a person living with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia. Aden lists certified dementia care with programs designed around each resident. Families should ask how TRIO works day to day, how often care plans are reviewed, and how staff handle restlessness late in the day.

Daily life includes a fitness center, a movie theater, a salon and barber shop, concierge services, a courtyard for morning coffee and a calendar of activities and social events. Scheduled transportation covers appointments and outings. Compare nearby options through senior living in Ormond Beach, and ask for a written list of what the monthly rate includes.
