FAQs

Parc Provence is an innovative, victorian-style community made up of five unique and interconnected quaint households. Each household is designed to provide an intimate living environment. Walk in the front door of a household, and you’ll find it to be like home. Each household has its own exquisite dining room, living room, kitchen and sunroom. Walk outside to your back porch or backyard and beautiful garden. Here, residents have a comfortable place to be in contact with nature – in a safe environment. Research shows that this type of household setting offers many advantages. For example, your loved one may enjoy making coffee or preparing a favorite recipe with family members in the comfortable and relaxed kitchen, just as they would in their own home.

Following a comprehensive assessment of the resident’s physical, cognitive and emotional strengths and abilities, residents are grouped in households, primarily based on those strengths and abilities, instead of by physical limitations or needs. Research shows that this system of grouping Residents fosters better care and more peer-to-peer interactions at all stages.

Each resident has a daily schedule, created for them, based on their preferred times and routines and according to their own individual needs and special interests. Group activities are based on common interests of current residents. Each resident is monitored to determine their participation in individual and group activities and their daily schedule is reviewed and modified on a regular basis. A music therapist, art therapist, horticulturist and massage therapist are on-site to maximize each resident’s potential and abilities.

Resident activities occur in each household as well as in a central Promenade. This features many interesting and inviting settings, including Ice Cream Cafe & Bistro, Library, Greenhouse, on-site Chapel, beauty salon/barber shop, private lake for fishing and nature experiences and adjacent park for tennis. Many other outings also occur within the local community.

Activities are scheduled 12 hours per day, every day, including weekends and holidays. Moreover, individualized activity programs are designed for each resident based on his or her own interests and preferences. In addition to these individual activities, there are many group activities to encourage socialization and interaction amongst the residents and their families.

Parc Provence has a total of 200 employees on-site to serve 120 residents. We have the highest staff-to-resident ratio in the industry for both daytime and evening shifts, including weekend and holiday coverage. All employees participate in an initial 32-hour training/orientation program, which includes 8 hours of classroom instruction specific to memory care, plus a minimum of 40 hours of additional training annually.
