At Pearls of Life at Liberty Ridge, the building itself is designed to facilitate the care of our seniors in a number of ways, including a community area called Main Street, designed to look like an old-fashioned line of shops, enclosed outdoor gardens and central patios where residents can safely enjoy sunshine and fresh air, windows and skylights throughout to maximize the natural light, and continuous floor plans so residents can walk without reaching dead ends.Residents enjoy private, spacious rooms and furnishings are classic yet comfortable, so seniors feel right at home as soon as they walk through the door.

Pearls of Life features Multisensory Rooms, an industry-leading concept that provides a calming effect on residents living with Alzheimer’s disease. Hallways integrate one-of-a-kind interactive environments where residents can draw shapes, play games, and move objects around simply by touching the wall. Each sensory room is themed to provide an immersive experience and calming environment.
All of these advances in care are designed to reduce the risk of aggressive behavior, improve overall mood, and even reduce the amount of medication needed. Studies show that the mood shift caused by the multi-sensory environment increases self-esteem, reduces inhibitions, and gives residents confidence in themselves, reducing the risk of self-injury by 75%.

At our Pearls of Life memory care community, we have several multisensory life skill centers equipped with familiar objects. This includes items such as a rotary telephone, display train set, military uniforms, vintage ovens, cabinets, cribs, and washing machines that enable residents to interact, to be stimulated, and to recall every day life experiences.
Familiarity in routine and hands-on interactions helps reduce stress and agitation, and help regulate emotions for our memory care residents.

Paws & Purpose! 🐾
Our Assisted Living residents at Willow Ridge spent the day mixing up some love — homemade dog treats, all made with care and compassion, to be delivered to the Lynchburg Humane Society.
Because giving back never gets old — and neither does spreading joy, one paw at a time.
