FAQ About Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care
The Lorelton has a great mix of residents both Ladies and Gents. Many are still young and active, and others need a little more help but it doesn't stop them from joining into all the great activities we do everyday!
The most popular activities at The Lorelton are Golf, Tai Chi, Bocce Ball, Bingo, Arts & Crafts Classes and our most attended activity would have to be Happy Hour on Tuesdays & Fridays. We call it Social Hour because not all drink alcohol but all have a great time snacking on a variety of Hors d" Oeuvres and beverages provided.
We have a bus stop right out front, but if you're in the mood for a stroll we have many area restaurants, convenience stores, salons, libraries, churches, dollar tree, water ice, fast food and much more. We are considered to be the "Art District" of Wilmington, so the sky's the limit!
We take trips every week to the grocery store, the dollar store, the post office, the bank and many other places one needs to visit regularly. We also provide medical transportation if needed. We also have Doctors who visit so you can be seen by Primary Care, Podiatry and Psychiatry.
You can literally eat 3 delicious meals at The Lorelton for only $10.00 a day!! Our Dining Director purchases everything locally and our chefs prepare each meal with care and to your specification. We can accommodate all types of diets and the best part is every resident at The Lorelton gets a free meal every day! We also have brunch every Sunday, hors d' oeuvres at social hour, and make a door to door snack delivery every day and when we throw a party, which is about every month, WE GO ALL OUT residents are free and so are guests!
The Lorelton's dedicated nursing staff does quarterly health checkups on each resident and we have Bayada here every day to provide Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapy so we can keep you strong and healthy. The stronger you are, the less likely you are to fall. We also have a yearly clinic on site for flu and pneumonia shots. We try to keep everyone hydrated and if we see a change in behavior we get you checked out.
We reach out to families anytime your loved one is ill, and if they have a year with no issues they get a yearly update in writing. We're a family at The Lorelton, and many loved ones visit often. If we see you, and you've got time to chat we sit down and discuss any and all concerns in person.
Although we are Not For Profit, and Family Owned The Lorelton doesn't cut corners when it comes to staffing. We are actually staffed at a Skilled Nursing Level. Our Nurse to Resident Ration in Assisted Living is 1 to 11 and in Memory Care its 1 to 4. Our "call bell" time is literally within minutes. We log every call for help, the time it came in, and the time it was answered.
The Lorelton does allow pets as long as the resident is able to care for it. Many have cats, but dogs are welcome too as long as they are leashed and under 25 pounds. There is a park directly across the street for walks. For those who would rather just visit with a pet than own one, we also have Therapy Pets that you can sign up to visit. Think of it like a grandchild. They come to visit, give you joy and go home. :)
The Lorelton has full time RN's, LPN's as well as nurses aids at all times. Each staff member continues their education and keeps up to date with their certifications. We hold monthly staff meetings designed to not only team build, but to further educate our staff. Lorelton staff members also take continuing education classes online and also attend local conferences. In addition, our Memory Care Director has every geriatric and ALzheimer''s certification you can acquire.
The Lorelton has a dedicated secured memory wing that was completely renovated called Lore Village. It was designed to look and feel as though you're walking down a lovely street in Tuscany Italy. When you visit for the first time, it's like stepping into a whole new world.
