Questions to ask when you tour
Memory care programming specifics
All 16 beds are designated for memory care — ask what daily structured programming looks like and how staff are trained specifically for dementia care.
Staffing ratios at full occupancy
With 16 residents and a memory-care focus, ask how many staff are on duty during day, evening, and overnight shifts when the building is at capacity.
State inspection history
The license became active June 2025 — ask when the facility's first state inspection occurred and whether any deficiencies were cited.
Admission criteria and acuity limits
Type B assisted living permits residents who need more hands-on care — ask at what point the facility would recommend a higher level of care and how that transition is handled.
Family communication practices
Ask how the team communicates changes in a resident's condition to family, and how often formal care conferences are scheduled.
