If someone you love is living with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, you already know the decision in front of you carries real weight. You want them somewhere safe and kind, but you also don’t want to disappear from their daily life. We’re The Sarah House, caring for seniors in Ormond Beach, just minutes from Daytona Beach. Our memory care is built so that you stay part of the picture, not pushed to the edge of it. Here’s how that works.
Memory care near Daytona Beach is available in Ormond Beach, minutes away, at a residence serving up to 24 people with around-the-clock staffing and dementia care through every phase. Families receive daily and weekly updates, 24-hour communication, and meetings on request. Visiting hours run from 9 am to 9 pm, with extensions for out-of-town relatives.
Where Our Memory Care Is Located
We run two residences in Ormond Beach. Memory care lives at our Old Tomoka Road home, which offers both assisted living and specialized care for every phase of dementia. Our Forest Court residence is assisted living. The Tomoka Road home cares for up to 24 residents, so your parent is a familiar face to staff rather than a number on a chart. For families coming from Daytona Beach, Port Orange, or Ponce Inlet, the drive is short, which makes regular visits easier to keep.
Specialized Memory Care Through Every Phase
Dementia doesn’t stay still, and care shouldn’t either. Our staff is on site around the clock, with medication management and personal help with daily needs handled as they come up. Residents eat homestyle-cooked meals, with dining assistance offered as needed. The focus stays on dignity and independence, with daily tailored activities, physical movement built into the routine, and an approach that engages all five senses. The aim is a day that feels purposeful rather than passed.
How Families Stay Informed Daily
This is where families tend to exhale. Our service includes 24-hour communication with families, along with weekly and daily updates and family meetings whenever you want one. You won’t have to chase someone down for news. If your mother had a good morning or needed a little extra reassurance, you’ll hear about it. That steady line of contact is part of what we mean when we talk about keeping you involved.
Family Visiting Hours That Fit Life
We keep visiting hours open from 9 am to 9 pm, so you can come before work or after dinner rather than squeezing into a narrow window. If you’re traveling in from out of town or your schedule is unusual, just ask, and we’ll work to extend those hours. Consensual physical contact between residents and visitors is welcome too, because a held hand often says more than words. We’re a non-smoking community, with a designated outdoor area, and we don’t ask visitors for proof of vaccination.
Memory Care That Comes to Residents
Moving into memory care doesn’t mean losing the providers your family already trusts. Residents are welcome to keep their current health care providers, and a range of professionals come to them here. That includes visiting elder care physicians, a podiatrist, lab services, home health, hospice, and pharmacy. Hair and beauty services are available as well. Bringing care to the resident spares your loved one the stress of constant outside appointments and spares you the logistics.
Conclusion
Choosing memory care for someone you love is one of the hardest things a family does. What we can tell you is that here, you don’t hand them over and step away. You stay connected through daily updates, protected visiting time, and an open door from morning to night. We’d be glad to walk you through our Tomoka Road home and answer whatever is weighing on you.
When you’re ready, request a tour or call us at (386)-267-8012. There’s no pressure, just an honest conversation about whether this is the right home for your loved one.
