The Country View program at Golden Pond is for people with various forms of mild cognitive impairment. We provide all of the care and services we already offer for our regular assisted living coupled with many enhancements geared specifically to those with diminished cognitive abilities. The unit is located on the third floor of our building with secured doors to prevent wandering and give residents a secure feeling that comes from being in a smaller, less imposing environment.

We recognize that these individuals have many important physical and emotional needs. We have set up our unit to provide for and meet several critical needs such as: safety, optimal stimulation, visual cues, options for privacy or social interaction and a homelike environment.

We offer a lower resident to staff ratio because we recognize these particular individuals will thrive with more individual attention and more supervision. The additional advantage to being in a smaller, more intimate setting, with less rotation of staff and nursing oversight, is that it allows us to better observe changes in behavior, appetite, orientation and mood with regards to new medicine and any possible side effects.
