Skilled nursing is the right choice for those who require attentive medical care, but don't have the acute needs that make hospitalization necessary. It provides a higher level of care than assisted living, whether the need is more hands-on assistance with routine activities, rehabilitation services or long-term care.

It's specifically for those who need greater care while recovering from a hospital stay, or for those who need longer-term care. At Friendship Village Tempe, compassionate services are provided around the clock by licensed professionals. We also offer custom programs that encourage maximum social interaction and preserve dignity.

Dementia refers to the loss of cognitive functions (thinking, reasoning, the ability to remember) that are severe enough to interfere with a person's daily functioning. This group of symptoms is not a disease, per se, but may accompany certain diseases or conditions. Dementia is irreversible when caused by disease or certain injuries. It may be partially or fully reversible when caused by drugs, alcohol, depression or imbalances in certain substances, such as hormones or vitamins. Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia. It is a progressive, degenerative disease of the brain, characterized by loss of function and death of nerve cells in several brain areas, leading to loss of recent memories and new learning first, and eventually old memories, too.

At Friendship Village, memory care services are offered in both our assisted living and skilled nursing neighborhoods. If your loved one's need change, we're equipped to enhance the level of care seamlessly. It's part of our continuum of care that helps us serve residents and their families at the highest level.

It's similar in that it helps restore strength and mobility. Occupational therapy helps people adapt to their social and physical environment through education in things like dressing, memory training and coordination exercises.

We offer a full continuum of care. That means, in addition to assisted living, we provide memory care and skilled nursing. These programs provide round-the-clock care for someone who needs long-term supervision or support, or for individuals recovering from illness or injury.

Whether you are concerned about yourself or a loved one, it's best to start with a physician's assessment. You can then match needs to the right level of assistance. When help with daily tasks is needed -- taking medicines, bathing, dressing, meals, transportation and housekeeping -- assisted living can be the answer. Rest assured, you'll find top-quality services at Friendship Village Tempe's Nunnenkamp Center.

Life Care is a financial contract and plan that provides all the services and amenities of independent living, with lifetime access to a continuum of care. At Friendship Village Tempe, this includes assisted living, skilled nursing and memory care. All the care is provided on our campus, removing the need for disruptive moves if needs ever change.

Think of the monthly fee as a consolidation of all the bills and costs of living in a house. Your monthly fee will pay for all maintenance, housekeeping, meals, water, cable, electricity, unlimited use of common spaces and campus amenities and much more. The amount you pay depends on the size of residence you choose and whether you live with a second person. A second person pays a significantly lower monthly fee.

I'm not quite sure I just work there.
