Willow Hall Alzheimer's/Dementia Unit

For residents with a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or other related dementia problems, Willow Hall at Ohio Valley Manor offers high-quality care and expert supervision. A special dementia care neighborhood devoted solely to residents with memory impairment problems, Willow Hall at Ohio Valley Manor provides a supportive and secure environment with a focus on activities that benefit the residents who live there. An interdisciplinary team of professionals assesses each resident’s abilities and develops a care plan that reflects the unique needs of that individual. Interaction with other residents and staff is encouraged and monitored at all times.

Willow Hall's physical environment has been specially adapted to improve each resident's potential to become more independent.  A large central hallway flanked on either side by private or semi-private bedrooms, a spacious living room and large dining room are adjoined by a large restroom for easy access.  Weather permitting, residents may access a lovely outdoor courtyard enclosed by a decorative security fence.  A specially designed "walking loop" within the courtyard often helps ambulatory residents who feel restless to relax by providing a physical outlet for excess energy. 

Willow Hall is a "secured" unit with a magnetic door-locking system which provides a fire safe exit yet limits unauthorized entry and exit.  Together, the physical characteristics of Willow Hall provide safety, security and support for residents --- while Willow Hall's specially trained staff provide the rest.
