Ellery Arbor Memory Care

Memory care is the sole focus at Ellery Arbor Memory Care, at 8100 Precinct Line Road in Colleyville, Texas. Sagora Senior Living operates the community under its Pathways program, built specifically for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia who need structure and closer supervision than assisted living typically provides.

Certified dementia care programs are designed around each resident, with associates on site around the clock and supervision of daily activities such as bathing, dressing and eating. An emergency response system is always in place throughout the community, and residents live in a setting built to feel calm and secure rather than clinical or institutional in tone.

Restaurant-style dining, a movie theater, a salon and barber shop and a recreation and game room give residents places to spend time without leaving the building at all. A full calendar of daily activities and social events is planned around routines that work well for people living with memory loss, and the community's overall design keeps common spaces easy to navigate for someone living with dementia.

Families weighing memory care should ask how staff are trained to respond when a resident becomes anxious or agitated, which is common with dementia, and how the daily schedule is structured around that reality. Tour the community and compare it carefully with other senior living in Colleyville options that also serve memory care.
