Services & Amenities at Sterling Pointe

Medications can be difficult to manage on your own, so we’ve developed a program that makes it simpler and easier for you. Our team keeps track of your medications and monitors your overall health. We can also make suggestions to your physician if your medications need to change.

We partner with TotalCare Pharmacy to ensure your needs are met.

Our 8-8 program is designed to help our Memory Care residents achieve structure and stability with specially designed activities. With this program, we can improve your loved one’s state of mind and sleep patterns.

Residents who have suffered illnesses or injuries may have lost essential motor functions that allow them to move around and communicate. We work with Fox Therapy to help empower our residents through a range of therapies.

Physical therapy helps our residents regain strength lost due to an injury or illness. Our team focuses on helping them heal and retrain their bodies while always working at a comfortable pace.

Occupational therapy focuses on helping residents regain their independence. We create accessible ways to approach daily activities when they begin to become challenging. By finding effective alternatives, we help our residents avoid falls and injuries so they can do more for themselves.

Speech therapy helps residents who have had a stroke, injury, or illness that has made communicating difficult and frustrating. Our speech therapists help our residents find their voices through vocal exercises that train them to use the right muscles to formulate sounds naturally. We can also help alleviate issues related to swallowing through speech therapy.

We support our medical services with a variety of recreational therapies. These therapies are included in our Integrative Health program and supplement our other care programs:

• Essential Oils: These aromatic oils are naturally-derived, and may help promote relaxation. Those with anxiety, pain, or nausea often use essential oils. They can also positively impact memory, mood, and learning.
• Hand & Foot Massage: This soothing form of touch helps release tension and stress. We frequently combine our massages with essential oils to create a more immersive atmosphere.
• Healing Music: Some rhythms and melodies often put people in a more peaceful state of mind. We choose specific music and schedule live music performances to encourage relaxation.
• Guided Imagery: Experience the power of your mind by concentrating on specific mental pictures. These sessions can bring clarity, focus, and relieve anxiety, insomnia, and pain.
• Energy-Based Healing Modalities: Reiki and other forms of healing touch are popular among those who seek relaxed, energized states of being. We invite experienced practitioners to our community so they can administer these services.

Our community life staff perform all Integrative Health services under the supervision of trained nurses. If you have questions about how these services might benefit you or a loved one, contact us and speak to someone who can help.
