Hickory Valley

Waitlist and Fees

We do have a waitlist; it is a $1,000 fee and goes toward the community fee of $2,000.

Staff and Services

We have RNS, LPNs, med techs, and care aides on staff, along with the management team, housekeepers, maintenance, activities, and dining services department.

We have nursing staff in the building 24/7, along with two daily checks in independent living and checks every 2 hours in assisted living.

Welcoming New Residents

We introduce new move-ins to residents through a new resident social, attempting to make the move easier for the new move-in. It usually takes about 60 days to get fully acclimated.

Transportation and Dining

Transportation is provided M-F to doctor’s visits, once a week to grocery stores.

Residents get different menu options along with an “Always Available” menu if they do not like what is on the menu for that week.

Communication and Management

Our general manager holds a monthly meeting to speak with residents on any concerns they may have. She also has an open-door policy if residents would like to have a meeting with her.

Residents get memos for any updates; family members are also updated as well; it really depends on if a resident lives independently versus assisted.

Lease and Accommodation

The lease is month to month, so a short-term lease is an option with a 30-day move-out notice, however, residents do provide their own furniture, so short-term stays are quite infrequent.

Pet Policy

We are pet friendly, there is a one-time, nonrefundable fee of $1,000 and the pet must be 40 lbs. or less along with immunization records provided.

Health Services

We typically have a flu clinic once a year.

Living Options

We offer both independent and assisted living options. Aging in place varies from resident to resident. If a resident needs a higher level of care (more than a one person assist, exit-seeking, dangerous behaviors to themselves or others), we will assess and make that decision collectively.
