Encanto Palms Behavioral Health Assisted Living facility provides a continuum of care for individuals that require low to moderate support for their mental health needs as well as a dementia memory care unit. With 3 separate units, Encanto Palms is equipped to handle residents who need a secured setting for added safety and security to prevent wandering or elopement type behaviors. Psychiatric and Medical providers come to the facility on a weekly basis to manage and evaluate residents on a consistent basis. The staff is also supported by a Behavioral Health Clinical Director to provide individualized care plans and interventions and trainings specific to each resident.
The Mirage Unit is designed for residents with a combination of dementia and a psychiatric diagnosis. Caregivers are trained in handling the behaviors and symptoms that accompany such diagnosis such as: wandering, pacing, refusing or combativeness with care, verbally abusive, or difficulty with redirection. The Sahara Unit is intended for residents with a psychiatric diagnosis that require a secured setting and added behavioral health care. These residents may present as elopement or AWOL risk, verbal abuse, make repetitive statements or behaviors, non-compliance with care and other moderate behaviors. The third unit is named Oasis which is unique because it is an unsecured behaviorally supported unit. These residents are not elopement risks but may still present with similar symptoms as the Sahara unit.
